I'd put 30 on berdych just so you come out ahead for sure. Think Nadal wins but guarantee at least a little profit.

always hedge
so you can enjoy nadal n berdych

berdych could play his match of his life

hedge to make a profit of whatever you need or want to win off the hedge

i been in this situation a few times this year, i havent won my parlays cause i didnt hedge

always take the free $$$$$$$, dont be greedy!

do the $137 total my child, gaurantees you equal profit man, you are gauranteed money in an uncertain world, theres very little reason for you not to do that for the equal hedge, im gambling you want to gaurantee yourself as most money as possible, i wish i was with bet365.com you can live bet anything and almost gaurantee yourself money with bets

Fuck hedging.  Wait for a middle at least with live odds.  Nadal is going to smoke this guy.

I have never seen a bet like this.  What is this type of bet called?  It looks like a parlay with super teaser combined.

itsn ot some crazy bet. im sure most books do it. all you do is parlay a bunch of teams and then before you confirm it you buy points. 5diems lets you buy up to 15 points i think, so im pretty sure this is 5dimes. but most books let you buy a few points. 

as far as hedging, hedging money will lose you money over the long run, its been proven so please dont argue that. i dont have the links but its been talked about at great depths on many forums. however just because its a -ev bet does mean you cant do it. however i really wouldnt guarantee the same amount on both sides. most you should do is bet between 15-50 on bird man just to get your money back. once you start guaranteeing the same amount on both sides you lose all value in winning such a big parlay. congrats on winning all of those plays by the way

Thanks for the supports. I normally do parlay before bedtime.
I did this one ..hope it hit too might be wasting money since people think parlay is waste of money which is true but if you can afford it then why not take a chance.
