I've got two open bets on the Red Sox in the ALDS against the Astros. I think that the Astros are going to win the series and I would like to hedge/cancel the bets below. As it stands now, if the Astros win the series, I will lose $430. Appreciate input from you guys on what would be the best wager or wagers to offset the wagers below. Thank you for your input.

1) Red Sox to win the series, -220. Wager: Risking $330 to win $150
2) Red Sox to win series 4 games to 3, +400. Wager: Risking $100 to win $400

It would be difficult to do now that houston leads the series. Houston is now -370 to win series.

yes and if they lose the poster loses double, not a good route to go.
Well considering he liked the bet he already placed the only way it has a chance is to get to game 7 is to win game 6.

Got a suggestion to play the Astros for $400 tonight to hedge out of the Red Sox series bet. If the Astros win tonight and take the series I would then only lose $30. If they lose tonight I will probably just let it ride and cheer for the Red Sox play. Given the parameters of my wager, this situation does not allow a true hedge.

Any other suggestions are still welcome. I'm going to wait until right before game time to decide what I'm going to do.

Put your money on the Braves.
