    Help the Noob Hedge a bet
    Ok so here is the situation, and like I have said recently on here I am very new to all of this so give me a break.



    I made a 1 unit 'pleaser' bet on Betonline.

    San Fran -3 v. Chicago on Aug. 21
    Buffalo -1 v. Indianapolis on Aug 24
    University of Washington +8 v. Oregon August 30th




    Now the question becomes, I know there is a smart way to play this bet, I am just trying to figure out what it is. My one unit bet is going off at +1700 or 17/1 odds or whatever you wanna call it.

    My thought is this...

    Why not take Oregon on the ML for 15 units....(betonline doesn't have the ML up yet so I am not sure of the payout) but that would give me a guarentee win (although not much)

    UW win = 2 unit gain
    Oregon win and covers the 8 points = approx. 3 unit gain maybe??
    Oregon win and NOT cover the 8 points = 20 + unit gain.

    Is there a better way to do this? Or am I way off?

    Thanks again for all the help this place has been great.
