I have bluejays to win al pennant $100 to win $1400
And bluejays to win world series at $30 to win $750

Made both around allstar break. What is best way to hedge. My current book allows me to take royals for this series at -257. I could also take royals todayat +120, but id have to ride again tomorrow.

Any advice? Best way to hedge and get max value for both sides?

I terrible at figuring these situations out too. You'll get some food assistance on this site. Appears you're in a good situation though. Bol with your investment.

If you had Royals in these bets and were concerned with a Toronto Comeback and wanted to 'hedge', then I would think you would have some leverage. You are at a disadvantage because you have a bet that is losing. Consider your ticket a loss as there is nothing to 'hedge'.
If your putting money on Kansas you should only look to do so to recoup your hedge wager. You could try and put 100 to win 120 to cover the two bets (still being 10 short), or x to win 130. If Kansas losses tonight, try to put x dollars tomorrow to cover the 130(your initial wager's) + whatever you put on KC tonight. If Toronto Wins (ideal) than you will be up 1400+750 - what you put on KC tonight - what you put on KC tomorrow.

I have always interpreted a hedge as say hitting 4 of 5 games and you want hedge to get the value of winning those 4 of 5 bets. Your trying to get your 2 wagers back. Your not hedging anything.

Someone correct me if I am wrong.
