i would let it ride, im on pitt pretty heavy.. but if you want, you could put 200 on tenn ML and guarantee yourself 200

if you dont wanna risk it...WHY PARLAY IN THE FIRST PLACE?

That won't work. Ten ML 200=490, meaning you win 90 bucks if Ten wins. Pitt wins and you win 409-200=209 win. Either way you win a little, but not guaranty 200.

especially a two-teamer

Let it go - you already got the first part.

There's no discussion on this one. If this had been the last game of a 3-4 game parlay, I can see where you might hedge. But if you counterbet you ruin why you played the parlay in the first place.

Hedging a 2 gamer...

Hedging on a two or three teamer is not good math.

One exception might be if the third segment is a medium to higher priced fave and the hedge would have a decent plus money price.

The other time to best use a hedge is if you have two incomplete parlays.

#1

A + B

#2

C + D

If A and C both deliver, you can place a small hedge parlay AGAINST using the opposites of B+D

For the most part though, letting a parlay ride out at full value is what pays the best and also what gives us that wonderful feeling of our nuts shrinking to the size of raisins in the 4th Quarter of that final selection and your selection is teetering on the brink.
