Help - Need to Hedge Raiders Game

Question

5 game parlay, with 4 winners yesterday. It still has Denver ML tonight. $100, will win $700. Should I hedge $600 on Raiders +3.5?

If Denver wins, I would win $0

If Oakland wins, I would win $500

If Denver wins by 3 or less, then I win $1,200

Looking for feedback (and to make sure I am not thinking it through wrong)

&#xA; &#xA;Agreed.  I was just looking at 2 out of 3 possibilities netting positive results vs. hoping Den wins.  Not really sure why I added it to the parlay..........oh well.  Thanks!

If your gunna hedge don&#x2019;t play the whole thing and hope for a middle. &#xA; &#xA;Why not not take the raiders for 200 say atleast you make money either way. And can still middle

Take raiders with the points .... 67% chance you win at least $500

&#xA; &#xA;That is a good option, thanks!

&#xA; &#xA;Yeah, the 2/3 win scenario is my dilemna, I am leaning this way, but Denver certainly could win - with Oakland able to then lock up the #1 pick.  Maybe I will just hedge a couple hundred to make sure my seed money is covered and I am guaranteed to win something.
