    Semi-Hedging Opportunity?

    I have a 14 team (6 point) teaser on the go, with the last 3 legs being: PIT +3, CHI +13.5, CHI-PHI Under 53. Only put $10 on it at 100 to 1, so now with PIT fcking it up nicely (push), its down to 60 to 1 (BET365). Is there anyway I could semi-hedge this to come out with almost guaranteed $$. My logic is maybe putting $50 on a parlay with PHI-8 and the over, and another $50 on CHI+8 and the over. So the only way I can lose all of it is if the Eagles win by 14 or more and the total is under 53? I still could middle and win the teaser and one of these parlays? Does this make sense? Or is there a better solution? Let it ride? Any help would be appreciated? I really think Forte is gonna have a lot of carries and therefore be a lower scoring game.

    It's only $10. Why throw good money at a play that is only a partial hedge? You could still lose $ if Eagles win by 14 and the total is under. That would be devastating for a $10 bet. First rule of hedging is to only hedge if the play is perfectly hedged (can't lose situation). If not, then it's one of the worst money management strategies you can employ since you are increasing your risk (even though it's slight). Let the $10 ride.

    Wow what a fukn gong show. Looking great until the stupid shit in the final 2:00 min of the first half. Fknd redzone defences, worthless pieces of $hit. Fukn rattling, even tho I lost only 10, feels like I lost 600. Fak!!! So many so times so close, just to lose in a heartbreaking way. Fakk!!

    1 fukn point, 2nd time this year, GB up 33-16 in the 4th, last leg of 10 dollars into 1000, need them to win by 7, they fuk it up nicely and win by 6. Classic, I hate the NFL. Well I love it, but I hate it.
