Seriously bro...LMAO

Makes plenty of sense......It`s money....You take the guarantee.....I hope he dosen`t listen to you....LMAO

Then why include the Monday night game at all? He'd have already won and not pay juice on both sides of the Mon night game.

Or I guess he would have hedged the last leg on Sun lol.

I think you guys are all smoking crack.....of course it was a bad idea to put in a monday game if he was gonna hedge....

he should've just done a 6team...then if it won, he can decide how much of it to roll into the monday game (I assume it wouldn't be the entire thing)

This.

Before putting in a parlay like this with a stand-alone last leg, ask yourself honestly if you are going to hedge that last game. If the answer is yes just leave it off and hope you hit the others and can decide what to do with it then.

The only exception is when the last leg is a ML fave so you can take the dog + points and go for a middle, or if the last leg is a spread and the line has moved across a key number. If his last leg was OSU +7' it would obv make sense to now take at least some Oregon -6'

All that said if you're gonna lose sleep over it when Oregon wins then hedge a nice chunk of profit out, but slant it towards OSU. Then don't do this the same way again next time.

Either way great hit so far. :103631605

and you guys are forgetting that he had one push....

His current payout if he wins the +174 is $3,206.92, NOT $5k

I saw oregon at -220

so he can risk $2200 to win $1000. and that way he gets $1000 or $1006.92. Not a bad hedge....


Sometimes you make good sense pal.....I agree

Screw the hedge! You went in looking for 5K, don't settle for 1K. Bucks get it done as bad as I dislike them though
