5 leg multi, 1 to go! help

[diesel_85]

ok so heres the deal.
I put on a 5 leg multi on thursday night.
Carlton h2h - win
Hawks h2h - win
Crows h2h - win
Freo h2h - win
Port h2h - ???

Im after some advice on whether i should outlay on the saints to try to guarantee a small profit or to leave it alone as its only a $5 bet @$22 with a return of $110.
is it worth just leaving it alone and hoping Port do the job?
How would i go about guaranteeing profit, just back the saints straight out?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, cheers!

Let it ride otherwise you are losing value.

Having said that if getting something is important, you could look to back Saints with a start and hope for a middle.

Really depends what you want to achieve,do you want to lock in a profit?
Only a $5 outlay so not much to lose & unless you have a Betfair account your only option is to back the Saints.

Any bet on Sts that wins you more than your $5 outlay technically guarantees you a profit but theyre very skinny @ $1.45
You could have $50 @ $1.45 to collect $72.5 so your Sts winning profit is $17.5 or still clear $55 if Port win.
Or you could just let it ride?

You can hedge but I'd let it ride.

Best odds for Saints are $1.48 with UniTab.

You'd be locking in a small profit... $30.

cheers for the reply's boys, really appreciate it.

Thinking i might just get behind the Power and hope they do the job, it is only $5 after all.

Does anyone know how Sportsbet feels about people doing this type of thing on the same account?

Nicely done mate!

Totally should have put $100 on the saints for a sweet $20 guaranteed.

Turns out this wouldn't have been a bad way to go. WIN-WIN. But yeah, $5 - I would let that ride.

Except backing the Saints WITH a points start would have got you odds of about $1.15

Exactly - which is why you wouldn't do it - except in this case it would have worked (luckily).
