    Looking for a piece of advice on Kvitova vs. Kirilenko, to hedge or not?

    Hey guys,

    At the beginning of New Haven Open, I placed a bet on Kirilenko to win - 30$ @ 1:19. I know some of you put down huge wagers, but 30$ is actually quite a bet for me. I also placed a bet on Kvitova: 25 @ 1:2.75. So I am in a situation where:

    Kirilenko win will gain me 600$
    Kvitova win will gain me 70$

    I have an additional 100$ on my account, should i place those on Kvitova??? Kvitova seems to be the favorite by quite a lot, but the line seem to be moving in favor of Kirilenko.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Throwing the rest of it on the best line you can get on Kvitova seems like the logical thing to do...Shit you will still win 600$ if she loses lol

    With that kind of bankroll bet the rest on Kvitova. She should win.

    Thanks for the reply guys, I will play it "safe" and bet additionally on Kvitova - win/win situation

    nb: would have awarded both of you points, but I couldn't transfer to you, Demonata....

    Man it's fine. Your Welcome. Always good to have guaranteed money and not have to stress at all during a match. That's one reason I love parlays.

    You always should hedge to ensure profit. I think Kvitova wins today. She's playing great tennis right now. She's pretty much back to her great form.
