    Hedging a 4 Team Parlay

    Question...I bet a small amount ($25) on a 4 Team Parlay which would pay $630. Usually, I always hedge Parlays when I need just the last game, but Im wondering if any of you hedge 2 remaining games?....The Parlay is:

    Chiefs ML +160 (Win)
    Chiefs/Broncos OV (Win)
    Packers ML +170
    Packers/Eagles OV

    The Eagles are -200, and the Over/Under is the same at 47.5. I could sit here and drive myself crazy with all the "What If" scenarios, but have any of you hedged 2 games like this? Is there a certain betting strategy to use to do this? Would an "If Bet", or "Action Reverse Bet" work?

    Again, I usually dont hedge 2 games, but on a small bet like this, I would like to get at least $200 out of it...Let me know, and thanks for reading!!

    Not much you can really do imo. Although I think if GB wins, it definitely goes over. I think the only way you can hedge is taking Philly, but tough to lay -200 on a hedge. Myself I'd hope GB scores first then get a better in game ML on Philly.

    Why not just hold the bet?.....every time I ever took insurance I usually ended up winning the original bet

    Eagles offense is garbage, just like the chiefs don't throw the ball down the field, i guess coach pederson took too much from the kc playbook when he was oc
