Got TB plus 2.5 tomorrow as a last leg on 5 gm parlay 100$ bet pays 1300 . Please advise, thank you!
If you are intent on hedging out of caution, I understand the feeling and I agree. If it pays out 1300 only if TB covers then you can decide now which event is most likely, Coboys win by 3+ or TB covers. I think Cowboys but could be wrong.
Then you might want to bet HALF that $1300 on Cowboys (650)
If Cowboys cover, you win the $650 but lose the $100 parlay. Net $550
If TB covers, you win the $1300 parlay but lose the $650 on Cowboys. Net $585
Adjust the bet sizing as you wish to achieve a better balance.
If it were me, I would hedge in this particular case because I feel the BOYS are likely to cover. This way you still come away with a very nice payout! GL whatever you decide.

If you can come out with positive units on a hedge it’s a win if your looking at your season long term goals which is to be on the positive units side at the end of the season..that being said obviously you want a bigger outcome..but it sounds like your not sure how to go about it..
it depends on what kind of risk you are willing to take and also how much your willing to win or lose and or can afford..
if your feeling lucky and your financially stable also willing to take a risk I would hedge 325$ which is 25%.. if you miss on the parlay you at least win back your money which is the minimum and you double it.. if you win it’s nearly 1k..
If your not financially stable at this point obviously I don’t know where you stand financially..there’s another option which you have to understand is not ideal but you can win at least half of this amount with either outcome and you make a play on Dallas for about half but you would only end up with give or take $500-600
ending the parlay with positive units is still a win..I respectfully disagree with the “you should never hedge argument” but that’s my opinion everyone has different perspectives and points of views and thoughts on it.. option number 1 is probably the best option in this scenario in my opinion..
option number 3 which is what I would do is hedge my initial 100 and let it ride..
this is not financial advice
Good Luck to you and your decision

I'd wait for Live betting and hope TB scores first. You might be able to get Dal ML +$$$ or Dal +points. Otherwise, ride it out as long as losing the initial bet isn't going to impact your quality of life.

Yeap this. The sit back and enjoy the game, win win. Don’t be greedy
