I put $250 on the 2nd half over of this Orlando game Parlayed with the Lakers ML tomorrow.

Do I put a little bit on Denver ML?

Put a bit on Denver +6?

Or just ride it out seeing how the Lakers most probably win tomrrow?

All input is appreciated! thanks everyone.

leave it alone. I know you are a big lakers fan. I have been on the nuggets every game and will probably be on them tomm, but the lakers should win and could blow them out.


enjoy it and go big that is why they call it gambiling

Well the greedy play, but not wise play would be $100 on Denver + the points and hope for a double winner.
Put the other $100 on Denver ML.
This gets a positive result no matter what and if Denver covers but loses then you get that lose back plus LAL ML winner.

Nuggets are 12-1 ATS this playoff season.

I say leave it be and roll them dice.

why didn't you just bet the 2nd half over straight if you aren't interested in riding out the parlay? it's only a 2 teamer, don't bet parlays if you don't want the risk/reward of a parlay. la wins straight up and then you wonder why you hedged it in the first place

Seems a no-brainer to me. Denver has been the better team and have a solid shot at winning the game so you bet Den + the points and hope the Lakers can squeeze out the victory for a double win.

I'm assuing it pays around 418 or so depending on what your ML on Lakers is. You're obviously gambling by betting a parlay so why not keep it up and try to maximize your return on investment. Put 400 on Nuggs +6 and hope to cash both.

Thanks David Stern, you fucking jew bagle.

netMinder, I doubt you're uneducated enough to understand the impact of your slur. You expressed no remorse and should be banned from this site.

hedging

hedging

It's probably too late but a couple thoughts for you:

1. Play Den +6 (or consider buying to 7) for 100. The middle opportunity is terrific. You could easily cash both tickets while hedging part of the par should the Lakers not prevail.

and/or

2. Tease Denver with Cleve (or perhaps Orlando) for 100 (especially a great hedge should you really like a side tomorrow). This creates a bigger middle on tonight's tilt and could have you going into tomorrow with half a tease won and the other half alive (with *further* opportunties to hedge should you so desire).

I personally would not play Den ML to go against your alive par at all but you certainly could consider doing so for a much smaller amount than the par.

The other thoughts responding to your inquiry are great too. If you think the Lakeshow is gonna prevail you may just ride out the winning par. I usually prefer to hedge some of it.

GL and GO Lakers!
