    honestly, the momentum that killed this play was when they missed 4 fts in a row when they were up 10.

    if they were to be up 14, guarantee they cover. but those 4 missed fts killed it. oh well, hope he hedged...

    See why gambling is so tough. A guy going for 100k is no better than a guy betting 500 bet points when it really matters.

    Will forever wonder if blazers -7 would have hit and not come down to giving up 9.5 points to DRose and the crew

    definitely stupid not to hedge, even if it was just $1000 bucks on the other side. Instead of a % of something, he now gets 100% of nothing. "let it ride" people shouldn't be giving advice. Not like this guy was taking it but still hedging here was the obvious choice.

    we're not talking about a 5 team parlay that pays out $1000 pal.

    we're talking about a 25 team parlay that pays $100,000.

    big fukking difference.

    whenever there's a hedging question, the true answer is if the amount is significant enough for "you", you hedge.

    i don't know about you but guaranteed money anywhere in 5 figures, you take it.

    especially when you paid attention to the game, chicago had too much size.

    he could've even hedged something during half time.

    but obviously it was some broke kid that had no funds to even put $10,000 on chicago.

    i honestly don't know how that streak survivor works but allegedly he still gets paid $25,000?

    idk if he gets 25k guaranteed, but if thats the case, then no way in hell should he hedge unless he needs 40-50k or something like that

    Like, it wasn't in his hands (ready to bet) but he earned it already for making it that far.

    Yes 21 in a row is 25K. THAT was the time to hedge (after 20 I mean), once you lock in the 25K, may as well let things play out.

    I have no problem with round robin parlays, especially in baseball. Sometimes you have to take advantage of your advantage. This way you can do just that and stay within reasonable money management.

    Round Robins can be a very good deal for bettors.

    LT gets it

    After guaranteed 25k hedging will only double that but you have the chance to triple on a one off game where you have 7 days to decide from in 4 sports and 100 games/markets.

    Guey obviously does his research, odds are in his favour would make zero sense to hedge after 25k and 24 picks streak.
