Why do people place good bets and then piss on them by hedging?

I absolutely agree. I don't want to insult anybody, but honestly, WHY PLACE THE PARLAY WAGER IN THE FIRST PLACE IF YOU WANT TO JUST THROW IT AWAY WHEN YOU'RE ONE BET FROM WINNING??? You just give away the odds you earned by placing a combination wager if you hedge. Otherwise, don't ever place parlay bets.

I do this on purpose, late gamer in NFL or NBA NCAA etc.. take a lakers ML so... Portland @ lakers -160. 

The spread is -5.5 lets say.  I hedge with with portland +5.5.  Guaranteed profit with a chance to middle.. this has happend to be 3 times already and counting

Lets say you hit 50% of your plays while you hedge most of the winning plays, and obviously outright lose the losing plays. How are you "winning" longterm here?

I'm not against the idea of hedging in certain spots, but the idea of hedging being automatic simply isn't right.

My guess is:

Bruins Win Today: Meanwhile I hedged $30 at +175 on the Bruins.

Game 7 in Boston: The Caps will be PLUS money in Boston so I can counter my hedge at that time.

My Hedge is based on the idea that Boston will win in Washington today, IM taking advantage of the Boston ++++$$$$
