    Should I hedge this?
    Long story semi-short, I entered my 1st ever office pool on 5Dimes. $10 against the spread. Winner takes all. Prize pool $620.

    Im 12 of 15 so far, in first place. Only 1 person has 11 correct. Of course tonight I'm on Carolina +2.5 (where the line was last week), he has Philly -2.5.

    Tie breaker is closest to total score of tonight's game. I have 47 and he's at 44.

    So my question, should I just throw 300 on Philly ML to ensure profit or let it ride?

    Let it ride. Philly is terrible.

      Yea they are. But I could take the luck out of it and make the sure $400. Plus, if Philly wins and it goes over 45, I'd win both bet. But that is reaching! Haha.

      Never expected this 60-1 long shot to be an issue.

        it really just a question of how important the money is to you? i mean if couple hundred a big deal hedge if not let it ride.. i think you have the worse end of the tie break for what it worth.. gl whatever you decide

          I would hedge - both of these teams are terrible and/or banged up. It's a tossup. Ensure yourself a payday! Otherwise, you'll be kicking yourself if Philly pulls one out of their a$$ here

            Thanks Bank. I'm going to let it ride, just for the hell of it. I'm with you though, wish I had the other guys tie break.

              Right move. You'll be glad you did in 3 hours.

                      Thanks Bank, I jumped on it at +10.5. I think I'm golden if the scoring keeps up, need a field goal!

                      Very profitable night!
