Best Way to Hedge This......?

badbeat1015 · Jan 1, 2010

Have two four teamers going, they look like this:

A- Winner
B- Winner
C- Ole Miss
D- Kansas City

A- Winner
B- Winner
C- Arkansas
D- Kansas City

They pay 10:1. Want to make sure I get my original unit back on each, and actually would like to just ensure + money.

Best way to do this.....??

or you could fade arky and ole miss in 2 straight bets for a unit each....wind up breaking even if the parlays miss....or be down a bet....or head into sunday with a chance at a bigger payday.....

depends on how much the money means to you......personally, i wouldn't worry about hedging until the final leg.....otherwise you may wind up doing a lot of this

I haven't considered this.

If this parlay splits, one of the original two is alive.
If it loses both, both pars are alive.
If it hits, I lose the original 2 units, but am up money.

I don't see the downside to this. Thanks cincy.
