    Hedge with the same book. No rules against hedging. It’s a very common thing

    I've hedged with same book live betting. Hedged on futures. Hedged with same book with bonus to clear. It doesn't matter. A bet is a bet. I wouldn't do it every day, but if you only do it a few times here and there they won't care.

    When you guys say it about so many people you should not complain SBR does not listen.

    You can safely make the bet at the same book. They are happy for you to do it as it is usually bad for you mathematically to hedge like this.

    And there is no way for them to find out what you bet in the other book you mention. But neither of them would care anyway.

    Heritage actually has a hedge or leverage play to encourage it.

    Even if you have no money available to hedge they will allow you to leverage it.

    But I dont believe it allows you to leverage within the same event, so you wouldnt be able to use that feature to hedge and closeout a parlay. You would need the funds in your account to place a seperate straight bet.

    Plus how would you leverage against a losing ticket (assuming your leverage bet won, which means the original bet you leveraged against lost). I may be wrong, but I always thought he leverage feature is basically an "if bet" feature for those who have no avail funds.

    a lot of bigger established books will welcome the fact that you hedge out and take a lower highest possible payout, over the long term over their entire client base, it works in their favor. if this was a newer or smaller book I would seek info from the book itself, read the rules and ask in chat. better to be told no then to try to sneak under the radar and then get clipped after the fact.

    Nice work to put yourself into the position and best of luck

    some books frown on betting both sides of a game for rollover purposes but i think you are ok hedging on a parlay on an established book

    Heritage will let you hedge and even do it with zero balance not risking any of your own funds if you dont have in account to guarantee a win off parlays...CS will do

    Betting both sides at the same book will get you banned at 85% of books

    I don’t even know the theory behind it why they would care

    I don't think he is talking about a rollover situation JJ.

    Books love you betting both sides in any other situation.


    What am I missing here with you guys saying opposite? JJ knows his stuff. One of us has missed something.

    In Vegas, all you have to do is walk across the street to a different book and no one is the wiser. It is done all the time.

    If you wanted to hedge the 7th game of the parley, you should have just done a 6 team parley originally. Then you would have won the parley now and you wouldn't have to hedge.

    You talking about something totally different than the op is tho. Of course they gonna frown upon you having bet same game at 2 different lines, you not gambling.

    Why would they care that he wants to greatly reduce the value of his parlay? I know some are big into saying “guaranteed profit” but fact is hedging in this manner op speaking of only guarantees he loses a bet.

    You left after two years because you couldn't win there. So it would be rather foolish of any sportsbook to try to limit your action. While I am skeptical of your claims, two warnings in two years is nothing close to a ban. But out of curiosity, any details on which sportsbooks and which markets?
