    Bosox Hedging help
    So if you had 500 on Bosox to win this series, what would my immediate action be? Any help would be appreciated.

    is it straight 500 to win 500
    or bigger amount say 750 to win 500

    or 500 to win say 350?

      Only way you can cover your loss is to bet $2,750 on CLE at -550 to win the series or lay $595 at -119 on BOS tomorrow and hope Beckett is once again lights out. Otherwise, you need to just write it off as a loss.

        if you want out of the bet
        play cleveland at plus money tonite for the nickle

        if you only want half do that 250 on clev

        i'm surprised the line favors the red flops tonight thus allowing people to hedge or get out of their RS series play

        they must believe they will be playing ball in boston this weekend

          That only works if Cleveland wins tonight.

            yes...you are correct...but i don't see many series prices being offered out there

            cheapest way seems to be to play clevland for the next two games and in the event it goes 7....just root for the red sox

              the time to do something was after game 1 when cleveland could have been had for +250 on the series

                I am stuck with this too. I won enogh off Rockies to cancel it out. I started to not like it after game 2 , wish I had just taken Cleve last 2 games and would have been OK.

                  Nothing to worry, Boston will come back and take the series

                    i went to the game last saturday...same matchup..

                    i took cleveland and the over...won both..i was very confident in those plays and could not pass up the high series price on the tribe at +250...thought that with a win in game 2...and 3 in ohio...the series may never come back to boston...after the indians went up 2-1 the red sox were +140...i took enough of that so that i win no matter who wins the series...

                    tomorrow's game i don't have a strong feeling on ... but i do believe that the red sox will make it go 7....carmona is a great talent but he was too pumped up at fenway and could not throw his fastball for strikes...overthrew and everything was low and outside to the right handers..he went to his slider on a few occasions when he was in trouble and he did throw that for strikes, but his best pitch failed him and his wildness and pitchcount saw him last only 4 innings...if he puts it all together he could be very very tough...

                    however, he's not mature enough and the crowd will get to him...shilling can probably put it together for 5 or 6 innings and hit his spots...if the sox get men on base and a few hits they will jump out to lead and this time...their bullpen (delcarmen especially) will get the job done. hafner is due to break out, and the line seems low....so.....i believe they'll be playing on sunday
