Hedging: do I need to?

[WashDCWinnerz]

And how do i?

I have 3 parlays with USC -9.5 as the last part of it. My book has a $550 max wager for the first half though and my parlays are all $500-550 risked.

I already won the Kansas and Northwestern parlay so I've got my money basically back.

If USC pulls it out, that's a pretty huge win.

Anyone know anything about San Fran?

 

[WashDCWinnerz]

any advice?

 

[Drunkn247]

If you have your money back let it ride brotha i'll take usc first half with u

 

[Drunkn247]

[WashDCWinnerz]

[bigtendominator]

Is Taj Gibson not playing?

Learn from it man. What are you going to do in the future if you get in this situation? I know it sucks losing the money, but now you know for next time. Just my thoughts.

Also, I wouldn't have hedged though... I like money too much and trust my picks. gl
