Push could be the same as a win for the parlay.

That was easily my luckiest cover of the year on all my bmore teases. Only loss of the night was a smaller NE halftime hedge to try and keep it from being a total disaster

I am not positive but I think the William Hill parlay cards are 'ties win' cards. Meaning this guy just needs to hold tight.

Since it's a special type of parlay, I would bet it's either Ties Win or Ties Lose, instead of the normal process of dropping to a 14-teamer. And knowing William Hill, I would bet it's Ties Lose. I can't find anything on the website. Hopefully they put out an update.

If he hedged and got Bal+6.5 he may only come away with $15k or so

If he hedged Bal +6.5 he may walk away $5k in the hole.

Hopefully he didn't hedge it fully if he only got 6.5.

He could have potentially lost money if he wasn't careful.

Some parlay cards are ties lose, some cards only have half point lines so there are no ties, and some are ties win with reduced odds... it would be interesting to find out what kind of card this was

From the William hill site:


In the event of a wagering tie or “push” with the pointspread or total, the parlay is reduced to the next lowest number of teams; for example a 4-team parlay with one tie would become a 3-team parlay, etc. A two-team parlay with one tie becomes a straight bet.

He lost.

And if he hedged Baltimore +6 or +6.5, that lost too.

Every week of the Pro Football Regular Season, William Hill offers a $100,000 Parlay Card. The Ties Lose Parlay Card requires patrons to go a perfect 15 for 15 against the Sunday/Monday point spreads and totals to cash. One of the $5 tickets survived Sunday with a 14-0 record. The 15th and final leg on the bettor’s card is Patriots -7. The $100,000 parlay card was placed at a William Hill Sports Book in Henderson, Nevada. This better has successfully picked Sunday propositions on the Week 14 card: Tennessee Titans (-1), Carolina Panthers (-1), Ind/Hou Under (47), Cincinnati Bengals (-6), Pittsburgh Steelers (-2), Miami Dolphins (-1), Chicago Bears (+8), Minnesota Vikings (-4), Tampa Bay Buccaneers (-3), Washington Redskins (-1), New York Jets (+1), Green Bay Packers (+3), Atlanta Falcons (-6), and the New York Giants (+3).


Gotta be perfect

Common sense would say to find a +7 to hedge or buy the hook. At least if he did that he got his money back.

ETA...or buy it to 7.5
