    to hedge or not to hedge?
    I got a 7 team parlay going. risked .25U to win 6U and some change
    5 have hit
    1 pushed
    Last leg Giants ML.

    I have no idea what the payout is now that 1 leg pushed.
    me no math pro
    San Diego -5 -110
    Colts -14 -117
    Packer ML-400
    Steelers ML -270
    Texans -3 -110 ( pushed)
    Jets -6 -110
    Giants -305

    hedge:
    Cardinals +275

    any mathmaticians care to help out?

        I would ride your parlay out. Good luck with your decision.

          yea, I didnt even think about a 1/2 time hedge.

          but the Giants secondary scares me .

              Mike if the Giants are losing at halftime by less than 10 points the 2nd half line will be 1/2 point or more in favor of Giants.

                Well smart players hedge, I'm not a smart player though, ride it out, great parlay by the way, all were very solid plays.

                  Personally I'd lay down like a unit or maybe even half a unit on the Cards just so ya make money regardless, but I think you'll be okay either way.

                  Good luck w/ whatever you decide to do!

                    didnt know that.
                    gonna let it ride till halftime and see what happens.
                    thanks for the advice folks
                    I'm small time anyway and only risked an extra value meal on it

                      well your.25U will win 3.59U if ya hit if you bet one unit on the Cards you will actually win more at +275 but thats your call but I would do it if im going to get 2.5 to 2.7 to 1 everyday of the week!

                        You win more with the cards becasue 1 unit minus the 3.59 is 2.59... just incase that didnt make sense
