Hedge or No Hedge??

ML Parlay:

Cincinnati // Miami

Pays 7:1

Thoughts........??

Being +6 units is better than being -1 units

 

[bigwillokc]

Hard to hedge the ML bet though....what would you do bet both sides?

 

[Prodigee]

tough call. not sure if FSU ML is worth it at -230

-225 FSU ML

4.5 units to win 2 on FSU.....

Come out ahead either way, with a chance to still make a small score....

Seems like you'd be better off to play both sides with the spread for -110 each. You could still hit 2 of 3 if Miami wins SU

could you elaborate a little.....?

i don't see how a spread bet of -5.5 could hedge a ML bet....

I'm retarded. The only way to really hedge is to play FSU ML and thats a steep price to pay for it. It's like buying insurance when the dealer has an Ace showing......I'd just stick it out. And I am on FSU so go figure....

Haha, no problem at all man, probably just misread it....

Thanks for the help, I'm really leaning to just going for the big score...... usually I'm a guy who likes to take a sure thing though.....

Good luck on your play.....

A 2.25x bet on the FSU ML would guarantee even money if FSU wins and +475 if Miami wins, basically making your new bet Miami ML 4.75x for 0x. I would do that. Just my opinion.

Thanks for the input. No doubt, this is a smart play, BR wise.....

But as of right now, my line ends up to be Miami ML +700, which is def. a good price......

I've decided to stick it out however, thanks Cowboy. :toast:

[badbeat1015]

always hedge

I usually do......

Steppin' outside the comfort zone on this one.....

 

[awmllc2000]

I have the same parlay GL

 

[CANEMATADOR]

Canes win this!!

 

[pumptender]

i never hardly ever hedge

what is the sense of playing a parlay to hedge , i just never understood that

only way i hedge if its a bet that is worth thousands and then id think about it

just my 2 cents and i play alot of 2 and 3 teamers with decent success

 

[badbeat1015]

Now the hedge is at a BETTER PRICE....

 

[Delta00]

Now the hedge is at a BETTER PRICE....

you get a 1-1 hedge on the halftime line, thats sexy
