1) BET ID=215973580
Parlay (4 Teams) 08/04/07 14:46 ET
250.00/2993.08 Result: Pending
Angels(Anaheim) (Escobar)
Athletics(Oakland) (Blanton) 08/04/07 (16:00 ET)
Athletics(Oakland) +127

Astros(Houston) (Jennings)
Marlins(Florida) (Mitre) 08/04/07 (19:05 ET)
Marlins(Florida) -155

Indians(Cleveland) (Laffey)
Twins(Minnesota) (Garza) 08/04/07 (16:00 ET)
Twins(Minnesota) -127

Mets(NY) (Maine)
Cubs(Chicago) (Lilly) 08/04/07 (16:00 ET)
Cubs(Chicago) -106



a)1300 on astros @ +145= 1885-250 wagered on 4 team parlay= 1635 profit

b) win 2993 on parlay-1300= 1693 profit.

obviously i selected the marlins becs i like their chances to win...but this teams bullpen is particularly bad.....if i did exactly this bet....im gonna make 1600 as long as the game isnt rained out (man that would suck)

zeke....def hedge the play...either way you make money.. if you don't hedge the play and win that parlay, it would be a lot better but you never know.

so why not just bet the three team parlay in the first place and save the vig you gave away by hedging?

if it get rained out..your hou bet will get cancelled and your parlay will be still good but less money...so you still win but not as much i guess..

Click to expand...

umm..because i never planned on winning?

i have east coast fox and west coast fox channels so i could watch the a's v angels, and cubbies game.....I


knew id be into the minny game cause i flat bet it for 1200/1000, and bet cubs game flat as well. 400 ish.......


if i planned on winning id have parlayed 500.......in mypost i indicated i won that money with poicket kings from some guy on sportsbook who shoved all in preflop agnst me with 77 for 800+, can u imagine if i bet his whole 800 on this play?


so the simple answer to your question is...i figured oakland or marlins would let me down.
