its really funny that he accepted that wager, because still the winnable amount is 20k.
i have st louis at 200/1 to win the world series at centrebet.com. i placed a 300$ bet and only 50 was accepted at sep11.

GL!  they already beat Roy Halladay and Cliff Lee.  I thought the Phils had it wrapped up after Lee led 4-0, shows what little I know.  But they crapped in their pants in game 5 with Carpenter dueling Roy again.  fat boy Ryan did crap again like A-Rod in the AL series. Yanks and Phils gone, not exactly made for tv WS.

I would not hedge anything yet. I would wait until at minimum after game 1 or 2 to see what they look like and also to see what the re adjusted series line is. That way you can get a feel for the series, especially if STL takes game 1 in Mil with Greinke on the mound. If STL takes 1, the series will adjust to Milwaukee + money and then you have a good chance to "screw" the book.

This could wind up being a desperation push for big winnings that come up short in the end. Hope not, for your sake. To date it was worth the risk and potential payout.

Put a load on Mil to win the series -140. Hope STL wind tonight, then MIL will be +105

Personally, I would never hedge.  I know its tempting but you're holding so much VALUE with your ticket right now.  Its why you made the bet in the first place.  You only lose money by hedging in the long run.  I'm rooting for you kid.  The Cards are one of those magical teams this year.  I don't see them stopping now.

...well maybe if the Cards go down 3-0 or something like that, I might consider hedging out

Not to be a buzz kill here...but did he say he was 19??  That might be the book's way out of the bet.

Great advice.  he shoulda started tonight, but if ur gonna win 20 Grand for a SERIES win u might as well slam the brew crew for 1 grand a game assuming they lose 4-2 or 4-3 best case scenario u win 18 and 19 grand minus some juice.  Worst case they win 4-3 and ur up a Grand minus juice not just a measly 100.  

I advise a higher middling strategy with 2-3 grand to guarantee urself a nice pay day big homie.  Think this through correctly and ur guarenteed at least some nice change
