Will you hedge this parlay?

kinda hard to hedge with more than one game to be played, if you did try to hedge out one or even two you could end up losing more

Haven't slept for 48 hours so my math might be a little off. The three remaining games are 2-0, 2-0 and 1-0 and can each be hedged at +1000 or greater odds. Even if I throw $50 on each, I can potentially still walk away with something if any of them do lose but is it worth it?

Why hedge when you can gamble? I think they're all going to win and you'll be pissing your money in to the breeze. You're not in this to potentially walk away with something. I've got the exact same parlay, twice and am I holding my breath? Hell yes but I'm not hedging it. Tennis traditionally pretty good to me for some reason, better than boxing and MMA for the most part. Get some sleep and when you wake up, you'll have some extra cash waiting at the book.

how would you hedge these games since all have started? I think you are in GREAT shape with all of them, Roddick being the only one I would be concerned with. His confidence has been low the last year and if he starts to play bad for a service game or two it can get ugly quick. He won last week though. I don't think I'd hedge against any of them. You would be minimizing your profit from what looks to be a good card.

Walk away with a little profit cause I hit a rough patch in bases and pretty much extinguished my balance with a few hundred left.

Good points though guys, lack of sleep has definitely got the best of me.
