Im kind of new to gambling but I've been following a lot of these threads. Okay so I have a 3 team parlay pending on Indy -3. I had Pitt and the over last night. It's only for $350 but would it make sense to put money on The Giants? I only have $200 in my account right now.

I also started with a small bankroll so I semi-understand ur position...the thing I always keyed on was having positive weeks...so for that reason I'd hedge...but if ur just in it for shits and gigs and as beningo88 said u don't need the money...pick up a 12 pack and enjoy the gambling! GL

If you hedge, that makes no sense. If you hedge, you have to ask yourself why in the world did you put that 3rd leg on your ticket in the first place.
If you had left it off, and only played a twp-team parlay, you would already have your "guaranteed profit" and could now take a portion of that profit and bet it on the tonight's game if you so inclined.
Playing parlays doesn't make a lot of sense in the first place... the House Edge is too high. It's much higher than straight bets.
Playing parlays with a late last leg, and then hedging later, makes even LESS sense.
Hedging comes at a price. Guess who has to pay that price? You're sacrificing your long term profits for a short gain. If you always hedge and I never hedge, I will eventually have much more money than you do. You will win something 100% of the time and I will only win something 50% of the time (when my last leg wins) but when I win, I will win more than twice what you do. Why? Because you paid a price for hedging, and I did not.
