    Hedging help

    I have a bet for the super bowl matchup to be Atlanta vs Pittsburgh to win a nice penny.

    No need to say " just let it ride, its gambling" I made the bet to have this option to hedge to make some coin.

    Best way to go about things?? I'm trying to think of all the best options and maybe hit a nice middle some how. Not sure the middle can be done since the Falcons game is the early game and the Pats are favorites.

    My 2 initial thoughts are teasing Green Bay to +11 and New England to +1. Hoping to have Atlanta win but Green Bay cover that spread. Then I'm sitting pretty going into the Pats game, whoever wins I win some cash.

    The other option I was originally thinking was parlaying Green Bay and New England. Hoping Atlanta wins but doesn't cover.


    Thoughts guys?

    I got two parlays. Pitt and GB to the Superbowl, Pitt and ATL to the Superbowl. Thinking about just letting it ride.

    Your teaser is a nice option, and likely a good one ... but you do open yourself up to losing both sides if Atlanta wins by more than 11.

    It's tough to make other suggestions without knowing what sort of odds you got on the matchup prop.

    You don't have a hedge play.

    I guess if Atlanta wins, you can lay some cash on NE ML and guarantee a win. But like others have mentioned, hard to advise without payout info.

    Best of luck.
