I really need some advice from you guys please. I am going back and forth on this. Do I let it ride, or do I risk $510 to win $300. LSU ML is -170. This is my least favorite option.
My luck if I play LSU -3 1/2, they will win by 3, and I will be out both ways. I could wait to see if the ML drops, but that is also a big risk.
I have never had to make a wagering decision this big. My average bet is $50. I could even risk $85 to win back my original $50, then I won't be out anything except the sleep I have lost over this.
I value and respect the opinions of most of you guys here. I know ultimately, it is my call, but any opinions would be great.
This Is Gonna Sound Obvious, But If You Want To Ensure A Profit, Then Hedge (510 To Win 300), If You Really Need That $50 Back, Then Hedge The 85 To Win Back The 50, But If You Are Throwing 50 Bucks Around On Parlays Like That, Then I'm Willing To Bet That You Don't Need The Original 50. I Would Hedge...you Win 250 If Lsu Wins And 624 If Ohio State Wins. This Is My Favorite Option. Good Luck Whatever You Choose.
i'd let it roll, its only 50 bucks. or i'd wait till halftime where you might get a better hedge.
I see what you are saying Molta--but a halftime play may be worse if LSU is up by say 10 points---If it was me ML LSU would be the way to go but its not my cash!!
The way I just figured is that you already have $414 of the books money that has yet to show in your account.....That is money that you have ALREADY WON!!
Now by letting the play ride it is no longer 50 win 1100 or whatever you are risking 414 + 50 to win 1134 on Ohio St +155
You decide what you want to do but you risked 50 when you made that play and now you are risking 464 because you have already won 2 legs.....nice decision to make......if you want my advice and you say that you are a 50 dollar player than make a 595 wager on LSU to win 350 and that will still leave a decent amount for you to win with the Buckeyes

This is the way 2 go...get some of that money for winning the first 2 legs and you still have more risked on OSU as the team you originally backed
Thanks guys, I am gonna let it ride. If I get a favorable half time line, I will play it.
I never thought about a half time line, but thats why I posted the question. Believe me, it is rare that I play with the book's money, and I don't wanna screw this up. Thanks again
