I know this is lame, but just see what you guys think....

[agent318]

I have a 3 team parley,

ST. Louis, Yank, Arizona.

500 to pay 1725.

I am thinking about betting 500 on the A's RL +1.5 -125 hoping to middle and hit both side. If not, I either push with A's win or profit 1100 with Arizona win.

Any comment welcome. Sorry for asking such a ball-less question.

[agent318]

another option, take A's +2.5 -230

I am always about free money, or breaking even or winning money. I am very conservative though.

Why not just put 500 on the ML and you will have profit either way. BOL on what ever you do

[agent318]

Thanks Smet, I think that's a very good approach.

I would leave it be. You thought enough of the D'backs originally, why would you hedge with the team you thought would lose to begin with ??

[agent318]

I understand keith. especially that being your POD. actually, I am being very greedy, trying to middle.

I hear you. Rare opportunity to ensure $$$ no matter what. Can't fault you if you do it.

You have to hedge something. That's a big part of making money if you're going to play parlays. Although 11 of Arizona's 18 wins have been by 2 or fewer, I don't like the Oak +2.5 play - (you'd have to put 1150 down to make your 500 back and it is Haren vs one of the weaker hitting teams in the league). Personally I'd put 385 on the A's at +130, because, like Keith said, you did like the Arizona play in the first place. If the A's win, you know you made the right decision, if they lose, take your 1340 and run..

Just my opinion, good luck on whatever you choose to do..

I am simular most times....

3 team parlays for 500 pretty much the oppo of conservative, or smart for that matter

gl tho agent.... I assume you would want to be in this position after the first 2 results... If it was me id probably go with the +RL like you said

Haren doesnt get run support so +1.5 would be good for this situation.

[agent318]

Since I'm up 2k already, i will just lock down my profit. Hopefully it will middle and add another 2k to my account. I took the aggressive of the two, Oakland +1.5. Thanks for all the great inputs. Very much appreciated.

[agent318]

A perfect ending to a perfect day.
