As you may have noticed, the forum was offline for a period. We identified a security incident to Sportsbook Review Forum and took the site offline as a containment step while we investigated.
We wanted to make sure the system and site were restored and secured before bringing things back online and you will see that we are requiring all forum users to reset their password as a precautionary step.
If you have any questions, our moderators are around and happy to help where they can.
I was always taught to only hedge if it is a life changing amount of money.
Arbing is slightly different, so I guess, I'll defer to others on that answer. Did you place the SEA -2.5 hoping for an Arb opportunity? If not, My view is that you have a better than market value wager on this game. The more you wager, the more house edge you are fighting against.

is there a right answer?
It depends as there is a difference between Expectation and Utility.
With Expectation, the right answer depends on the math.
With Utility, the right answer depends on the person.
Rocks is correct in that you typically only hedge, if:
1) Life changing $
2) Pre-planned
Otherwise, it's usually a regret minimization technique that typically costs you equity.
