Okay so it’s an 5 team parlay

2 games left

$300 to win $8,000

Does this make sense...

$1,100 on the first of the remaining legs

if my parlay is still alive

then go $2,200 on the next next leg


if the first leg loses I net $700

if the 2nd leg loses I net $600 b/c I would have lost the $300 I put down and the $100 for juice.

by doing this and lets say I win the parlay well I guess I would net $5,800

Does this make sense or is there a better option?

for those of you saying let it ride

I got bills to pay dawg

[deeppckts]

If you can't afford to come away from it empty handed, what would you have done if the first leg had lost?

And yes, the answer is let it ride.

was drunk when I made the bet

Tell us the pending games

My buddy says I should hedge but I told him the math had to make sense

would be a no brainer if it was down to 1 leg

[deeppckts]

If you hedge you're sacrificing EV, so the answer in terms of EV is hedge 0.
Beyond that, if you ARE going to hedge then it's up to you how you want to split it up based on the possible outcomes.
The way you did it, you've left yourself open for a sizable win if your parlay hits.
But if you doubled your hedging bet amounts to 2200 and 4400, you'd have the opposite. There's no right answer on how to do that.

If you want to figure out how to guarantee yourself the same amount of money regardless of the outcome, let me know.

Tell us the pending games

LSU -13.5 over Oklahoma

Ohio State ML over Clemson

nervous/hype/excited all at the same time

need some momentum heading into 2020

[trillz]

Personally I would put 300-600 on the first leg and if it hits you can almost 50/50 hedge the last and come away with a few grand. Otherwise it’s a free roll essentially

I like it thank you

[Otters27]

Let LSU ride then go Clemson

[pavyracer]

Let it ride. You can hedge on the cheap on a live bet.

Ughhhh if only the Ohio State game was first you'd probably only have to hedge with Oklahoma.

[daneblazer]

Is this some subtle sbr betting tutorial on what not to do ?

[Hman]

I would ride with Ohio State and only hedge with Oklahoma.

Otherwise you're screwing up a much bigger payday.

I understand you need the dough but you're giving too much back by hedging 2 Games

[Big Bear]

I admit I am a OSU homer

and that long haired freak Trevor Lawrence scares the hell out of me


Justin Fields says he is 80-85% and will wear a brace too

maybe he is playing possum trying to get Clemson to sleep on his running ability

who knows?

we got embarrassed last time

took us 5 years to crawl out of that grave Clemson put us in last time

Bear don’t hedge

Go for kill

Just wait for RangeFinder to come in and give you advice. He should check in with his solid input about 10 hours after your bets have started. BOL

[RudyRuetigger]

double down with account balance on same teams as parlay

quit being a bitch

[2daBank]

Put it all on Clemson.

[daneblazer]

If you absolutely have to hedge, put $350 or so on Clemson ML so you’re free rolling, then try to find OU +14 for whatever.

[Louisvillekid1]

Your joking right

you have never bet $300

lol your handle can barely spell

cmon

[cincinnatikid513]
