I screwed it up too ! I wanted NJ/Buff over 5 -115, not NJ -115 :ohno:

I backed it up with the +1.5 lines

I guess you could hedge it with a 6-teamer taking all the opposite sides. :lolBIG: But let it ride!!!:aktion033

that might break even !

I don't do these lottery tickets often, every once in awhile I get a wild hair up my Kimchee and do it.

You can't really even hedge hockey with no halftime betting !

I have no intention of hedging anything, unless it somehow got to the last leg, and there was a time window to do it, then maybe. I paid no attention to starting times... just a throwaway bet really.

Everything late goes at the same time, so nothing to even think about with this one !

Maybe you should. There is a poster at this forum who says everyone in his neighborhood has won the lottery at least once.

Its a very +positive thing.

even that wouldn't work... the 6 teamer goes 3-3 (etc.), you have two losing tickets.

You couldn't do much to hedge if you desired to.

I'm poking fun at the guys betting parlays intending to hedge them.

I'm more apt to do this with Freeplay, than real money, if software allows it.

I agree Doug, love betting parlays with freeplay money. Have a few on the go today as I got a 50% freeplay bonus yesterday from Justbet.

hedging is the most retarded thing in sports betting, unless it's a futures bet. Why not just reduce the amount of teams in the parlay and save the double juice you have to pay?

I agree in general, but with this throwaway ticket that pays 3 dimes ( done on a whim), if the first 6 legs won, and the last leg was hanging, I'd probably put $500 or so against it, to guarantee something, if it was a late start.

I hardly expect this now 6 teamer to win.

Second leg is now a "LOCK".

Buffalo probably wins 4-2 to make me pay for my misteak !, but then I'd at least catch the small one. :ohno:
