HELP....I need your Opinion

Hey Guy,
I would like some Opinion's on a bet I made today. I made a 4 team parley 100.00 to win 1230.
(1h) Dallas -7 (win)
(1H) Dallas Over 21 (win)
(2h) Clemson (-4.5) (win)
(1H) Green Bay (-6) (pending)

Wouldn't the smart thing to do now is Bet 600 on Chicago (1h) +6 this way securing at least $600 win.

Would love to hear your thoughts.

Put a sawbuck or two on the Bears tops....I'd just put your parlay wager on it myself.

You'd win 1230 or break even....

same here....I would put at least $500 on Chicago but I would wait until the line moves because you might get +7 and that would be a big plus.

something else to think about. I do this quite often, not to the extreme yours is in all the time , but the same in theory. I like to try and win both sides and bet on the linesmaker being pretty close. In other words, I would now put a teaser in on the bears making them + 13 or so depending on a line,( right now my book is at 9 , so you would get 15 ) perhaps teasing them with the Chargers or Vikes, some team that will play well after this one. You would obviously hope the Pack wins by 7- 14, which is not a bad spread- You would get your parlay and still have your teaser alive.
Nice picking and good luck on whatever you do. It's a good choice to have

After being burned once, this is what I always do now. This way you gaurantee yourself a nice profit, and you don't have to sweat Green Bay winning by field goal. GL
