    Tigers Hedge?

    I've got Detroit Tigers to win the AL Pennant fo $50 to win $445. Should I jedge with Texas series price, let it ride, wait til game 1? Give me some opinions please.

    I have Texas +275 to win the AL, and I am doing nothing, feeling I already have the best of it with Texas being favored. In your case, maybe bet enough on Texas series to win $50? That gives you a free pop shot on Tigers.

    yeah, either play the rangers series, or its more of a chance but wait until verlander wins game 1 and then you can get the rangers series price at +. obviously if texas wins game 1 it will be around -200 though.

    i might let it ride but a possible hedge as well.

    i got st louis at +4000 to win the world series. (+275 now).

    I would like to see the stats on these quick turnaround games like Detroit is in tonight. Having Verlander at EV is probably the one and only time you'll get it. I just don't get a warm fuzzy with CJ Wilson right now

    the only problem with hoping tex loses game 1 is if they dont lose you wont get -140 again on them for the series.

    you should wait until after tonights game. tigers win, texas' price gets better. but you should just put enough on it to get your money back plus a few cheeseburgers.
