    Fellas, Check this out. Hope this isn’t the kiss of death but…this morning I was checking the spreads at a few books to see what the prices, values and payouts were on a teaser or parlay. It was super early and I was curious. I accidentally booked this bet by accepting “changes to the odds”. It went green and confirmed the bet. Oh shit. I call the bookmaker and they tell me they won’t cancel it, blah blah blah, the rules are this and that, they don’t void parlays and teasers, anything, etc… well- now I am literally A&M +15 away from winning the damn thing.

    You can go for a middle if you want to lock in something right now

    Thanks buddy. Big enough for me. I do throw down some big bets sometime but rarely teasers or parlays. I was shocked when it accepted green.

    That is a lot of coins MJ. I would live bet now HOU -8.5 and lock in something of a hedge. you also have a nice middle going then. I would most likely risk at least 2K. let us know what you do.

    Going to let it ride. Fukk it. I think it could go either way if A&M doesn’t start making these free throws. They need to bang around and keep it close.

    Fukk it. Good call. Here’s what I did. I feel better about the hedge since I didn’t want to be in this situation anyway.

    Get it MJ,

    Personally, I don't like to hedge.
    I will hedge on occasion to get my original invest back if the price is right, and in this case, I would strongly consider it.

    If you talk to ten different seasoned sports bettors, you'd get ten different opinions on hedging.
    Best of luck buddy.

    OK good move at worst you break even if HOU Blows out A&M 2nd half. Looks like you are a a heavy hitter. and you could win about 17K.

    Yes sir. I was having to open the books in their states so I stick BetMGM, Circa and William Hill legal Nevada, FanDuel in AZ and then a couple offshore everywhere else.

    I don’t either but I didn’t want to be sitting here sweating this out anyway! Usually I roll with it.

    Agreed. At worst break even I can live with. I would love to stick it to them though. Good call on the hedge.

    especially since the wager was a mistake. You will sleep easier with the hedge if HOU rolls A&M 2nd half.

    I need my Heritage account to bet the UConn, Yale, Fairfield, and Quinnipiac teams.
    'Q' has been a moneymaker in NCAA ice hockey, they won it all a couple of years ago.
