you call yourself a gambler? let it ride my friend. I was on here last year when that guy had the 15 teamer on bodog that he put a $1 on to win a couple grand. He won. You will too.

i would hedge the game tonight. i think minny wins su or at least cover the spread. i would hedge with minny +3.5 -115 or somthing like that for $600, that way you have a good middle number.

I'd hedge for a few reasons:

A) I think Minnesota wins

B) You guarantee winning something

C) The refs could screw you like they've been doing all season

Alot of sites have moved to 3.5 try to get it there and hope for the Saints to win by a field goal.

wtf... the ML was 2:1? good fucking lord, worst move ever for the book.

I lean saints but I would hedge anyway... it's a good deal u got the 2:1 so I'd at least throw in $500... to guarantee it. Minimum is $300... cuz think of $150 at 6:1... chop off the top and u have $300. So anywhere from 300-500 sounds nice.

without a doubt I would hedge with minny +3.5. buy the half point. that way you have the possibility of winning both bets. obviously the payout would be less on the parlay because the push but you win both.

Personally id let it ride.....I would of left NWO off that parlay if I was gonna hedge after the first two hit....you cant go wrong taking minny +3.5 for a bit though atleast you have a middle opportunity there .

plain and simple, if you had any intention of hedging, you should have never played a 3-teamer in the first place. you should have simply played the steelers moneyline and the over last night. what was the point of adding the monday nighter? now youve kinda mindfu.cked yourself. you'll get all kinds of different responses in this thread and a lot of them will be based on solid logic. but i still think ya could have used better judgement prior to kickoff last night.

Very very negative EV to hedge parlays. Not a good idea. If you told yourself before the bet that if you won the first two games and it came down to the monday night game that you would hedge it, your expected value goes way down. The positive expected value and right play is to let it ride! Good luck!

I agree BUT at the time I put the bet in I thought that the NO line would move up from 3 and it did to 3.5.

just hedge the damn bet and buy up to 4 on minny

you have free money and maybe a middle or push

who cares if it was stupid to parlay ths with that or whatever. ur money do as u want

if u are a gambler and the parlay dont mean much then let it ride, other wise hedge the bet.

or wait to halftime and see if u get some value

goodluck
