my first thought is 600 to win 500 on Mug

either bring home 1000 profit with Venus or 400 with Mug

or could always even it out if you've lost that lovin' feelin'

1200 to win 1000 on Mug

bring home 400 profit on Venus or 900 on Mugs

As always it depends who you like & want to root for to enjoy the match.  Nice call on grabbing that, most importantly is to have fun with it.

Why does it depend on who i like and want to root for? 
I do agree that either one of those options you mentioned is the one that i will select.....but do you think the Mug line will drop by tomorrow?

Well you may as well treat it like a new bet & cap/gut it out as to who will win.  Then lean on that side.  Seems like Garr is all about Mug right now & he's tended to be correct so you may want to lean that way.

If you want to make it boring then just even it out.

here's your choices

1000 400    Bet 600 to win 500 on Mugs
880 500           720 to win 600 etc...
760 600
640 700
520 800
400 900
280 1000
160 1100
40 1200

I think I'd go profit of 520 on Venus & 800 on Mugs.  You make at half a g ball or almost a whole gball.

I was think about parlaying Mug with another wager that is -500 or worse....to reduce the juice.....does anyone have a MLB suggestion...I'm allowed to buy points for baseball.....e.g., i can add up to 4 runs to a team......so maybe a 3 team parlay including mug  and 2 other baseball teams would be better? Below would be an example:#1) MLB Baseball
Selection : Toronto Blue Jays/Detroit Tigers 7/14/2017 4:10PM - (PST)  
Total Points OVER 6 -709 for Game

A. Sanchez - R must Start / J. Verlander - R must Start
#2) MLB Baseball
Selection : Texas Rangers 7/14/2017 5:15PM - (PST) 
Spread +3 -451 for Game

M. Perez - L must Start / J. Hammel - R must Start
#3) WTA Grand Slams Tennis
Selection : G. Muguruza 7/15/2017 6:05AM - (PST) 
Money Line -120 for Game
Risking : 500.00 To Win : 777.88 USD

In hindsight, you right, that hedge was pretty dumb......like why did I even tease the other teams ?? I missed out on a 5 team parlay ??
