The 4-leg futures parlay placed on February 14th has already cashed on:

• The U.S. men's hockey team to win the gold medal
• The Michigan men's basketball team to win the NCAA Tournament
• The Knicks to win the Eastern Conference

All he needs is the Spurs to win.

What are you doing in this situation? Cashing out or riding?

Cash me outside. Not risking paying off my home and freeing up monthly expenses for the 50/50 shot of doubling it my money. Walk away very happy.

Cashing out and/or hedging big time.

No way I'm letting it ride.

Rolling with SA... staying in. I'm not a gambler so that would be play money anyway, why not.

Yeah uh, if he has that kind of money to make this bet, and then hedge this bet, he isn’t concerned about cashing out or losing this chump change.

This makes zero sense. If you were not a gambler, you absolutely would cash out.

Laying down $2,500 on that parlay is a bold move.

Some people bet differently from me. $25 would have been the max I would have bet.

They are screwing him over on the cash out even though it might be hard to come up with 1,000,000 to hedge with.

If Spurs win, he gets 1,700,000
But if you hedged with a 1,000,000 on Thunder at -155, the payout is 645,000.

So you could bank 645,000 or 700,000 either way. Which is more than the $612k cash out.

I’d def cash out or hedge

ML is +130

If he bet 612K on ML, his payout is 1.4mil.

I'd take the cash out

Don't forget about the tax implications of a 1mil bet now with the new law.

If he was smart he’d have hedged the series after Spurs won Game 1. Could have gotten + money on the Thunder at that point instead of the -155 now

Why cash out when you can guarantee more by hedging?
