    Capitals winning cup question. Help plz
    Ok to make a long story short if the caps win the cup i get 2400 bucks off a 200 bet. If they win tomorrow and force a game 7 is it worth it to bet on TB to protect my $?.

    If TB wins I win and if Washington wins thats great because they make the finals. Is this stupid logic? Should I wait and if Washingtom makes the finals go ahead and bet on Vegas to win the cup also? That way I am guaranteed to make like 1000?

    Or do I just leave it alone?

    If I get in a spot where I can guarantee a 1k profit it might make the most sense to lock up the money.

    Any thoughts?

    Maybe I ahould bet against caps tomorrow and game 7 just in case they lose.

    I would wait to see if they advance to the final before hedging your bet. You are going against 101 years of history by betting the Capitals to win the Stanley Cup. No Russian has ever captained an NHL team to a Stanley Cup.

      Thanks for the advice I will wait and see if they make the finals and then check the Knights odds. No guarantee they would be the Knights anyways.

        ITs only 200.00 Risk?

        Why hedge now? It’s really a 200 Bet on Caps tonight. If it was a straight Bet you wouldn’t hedge a single bet.

        Let it ride for now.

            Yeah I have no clue about hedging that well. I need caps to beat knights also to get my 2200 off the 200 bet but I see your logic now. I should he focusing on getting my 200 back and not the 2200 win.

            But Vegas is +105 to win the cup so if the Caps move on I can bet like 1000 on the Knights and have a guarantee 1000 win.

            If I am worried the caps will lose game 7 against TB I can bet on TB and if they win I make $ and if they lose then I am prob set with Caps winning the cup. I don’t think Vegas can beat caps or TB.
