CRIPES!!! I'm sorry, I made a huge mental error! You don't have to play $500 to get the outcomes of +$400 or +$1,070!!!! NOOO. You just need to play approximately $322 on chicago or as close to $322 as you can get it (since chi sox are plus 1.55 at some books.) That would give +$400 if chis sox win and approx +$1,250 if minny wins!! Sorry for the bad math!! But, there you are! tulsa

Tulsa maybe I'm reading something wrong, but he doesn't need to bet anything on the WS....he has them in a parlay already....he needs to bet on MINN....whatever amount he feels comfortable "locking in" on both sides. IMO

I really like the White Sox tonight but I would at least cover the cost of the parlay. That way you keep your team you liked in the first place at no cost.

thank you ALL for your opinions. ive never been much for hedging but in this instance i decided to go ahead and do it. (thanks to most of you)

im betting 262 to win 150 on the twins. i will at least win $50 on the game.

needless to say, i will be REALLY REALLY rooting for the sox!~

RPM I like your position... Johan will not be nearly as good this year... minnesota bettors will learn a lesson tonight laying such big chalk..

I think chicago wins rather easily

I just saw Tulsa's post and he is quite correct, especially if you

were receiving TRUE odds on M:103631605 inn; we assume that you are
paying a little extra (the "vig") so I advised that you do what is
comfortable.

Best of luck in your decision.

RPM- If the Sox dont come back here, look at it this way....... You made $50 on the bet, but had you lost one of the other games not only would you have not won 50, but lost 100 and most likely would have lost something on the Chi Sox here also. So really you did well! (Helps me cope when things like this happen)

rpm just something to consider... back in my parlay days i use to stagger the games like you did... but I also made sure the last game was a FAVORITE


this way you can really secure a nice profit without having to lay the chalk eating up the winnings should the parlay hit
