Middle-10 team parlay

I am a "for fun" sports better. I have a 10 Leg Parlay Card (cost $10) with 5 winners in, 5 games to go. (pays $ 6,000 - I know parlays are sucker bets)

Games left: South Carolina -6, game on 12/29, Michigan +1, game on 01/01, Boise State +8, game on 01/01,
LSU -9, game on 01/03, Ohio State -8, 01/08.

At what point do I start to bet the other side to insure a "win". What amount?

thanks,

Kathy

Never. If you were uncomfortable gambling on those terms you wouldn't have made such a parlay to begin with.

probably need to make it through the new year's day games, then start to think about it..

Has something changed since you placed the bet?

Do you no longer like one (or more) of the picks)?
Do you no longer afford to loose the money?

etc

If nothing changed, you have no reason to hedge.
