  • Question About a Parlay

    Someone please tell me of my thinking is right here:
    I have a live small 6 team parlay with two pieces remaining tonight with San Francisco and Over.
    My my way of thinking the only way to possible hedge this is to take Pitt. and UNDER for whatever amount I choose and hope that both plays lose or both win but not split?
    Is my thinking correct here and/or is there another way to hedge this?
    Thanks for any responses.

    Still risky. Why not wait for a half time play, your odds may be better. Unfortunately you will need a mathematician to help you at that point.

      Hi Rob-thanks for responding;I think I will just sit back for and see what happens and/or wait until the second half as you suggest.
      Personally I think it will end up SF and UNDER, but what do I know?
      At least I can't lose more than the $15 I invested in the parlay. lol

        Sorry Savvy, I'm not sure how to hedge that.

          hope for a very low scoring first half, your hedge will improve.

            I personally would put half on the total and half on the opposite team. Worst case scenario is you lose your parlay and only lose the juice on your 1 straight play loss.

              Guess you are going to let it ride. Good luck, I will be pulling for you.

                I did nothing and lost the lousy $15.
                I should have listened to myself when I said in an earlier post when I said it would end up SF and Under-could of, should of, would have.
                Actually I was shopping with my wife-if I had been home, who knows what if anything I would have done at the half.
