Ok so the parlay pays roughly $4200. If Syracuse covers you have to hedge on Duke the following night as well.. You are originally risking $50.. so I would bet $700 against syracuse and hope the line goes up by Thursday.. I might even buy points to try and middle it.. If Syracuse Covers then I think I would play against Duke for $1500... This way you are making some money no matter what. You really can't hedge syracuse for more than that..
