    help with hedging on soccer matches

    If a pk line is not available, what is the best approach for hedging... recognizing the possibility of a draw result?

    Is there a best practice for %'s ?

    I feel like a fool for asking.

    Example: parlay is on final leg.
    $70 parlay pays $350.
    My team is the favorite at -211.
    Draw is +340
    Opponent is +788

    Suggestions?

    Thanks in advance!

    I would be 50 on draw or away win (away team +0.5) should return 125 in return covering the stake for your parlay if it were to lose.
    Some people would leave it as the last leg is a strong enough fav.
    Some people would just take the profit so you get the same return either way.... 140 on away +0.5 would return 350. So total stake 210 = 350 whatever the result.
    If youre asking which is the best, I personally think protecting the stake. But check the away +0.5 is around +150 as im guessing it will be.

    I'd personally watch the game and see how it's going and then hedge live-in-play if the team you need isnt looking that great

    Just wanted to say thanks. My out doesn't is hit and miss with Live betting, so I took the +.5 at +175 to cover my stake and guaranteed a small profit.

    Best of luck
