    I made some future bets before the season, and two of them are still in the playoffs. I have BAL to win 20 units and ATL to win 15 units. It would be the best if they play each other in the Super Bowl, but it is highly unlikely, I think. Should I just let it ride???

      hedging will significantly cut into your potential payout, since MLs for next weekend are NE -410 vs. BAL and SF -190 vs. ATL. SB weekend MLs are NE -250 vs. ATL and SF -180 vs. BAL.

      your decision to let it ride this weekend, and/or next weekend, depends on whether you want a sure thing, albeit much smaller payout.

      specifically, how confident are you in the 3 of 4 potential outcomes in the 2 conference championship games that will allow you a hedge opportunity for the SB? GL! whatever you decide.

            Agreed! It's too expensive to hedge. I might hedge a little live if an opportunity presents itself, but other than that, I won't. Thanks for the reply!

              Only hedge if you've made a bankroll mistake in the first place and don't want to have so much risk.

              If you've changed your mind and prefer an opposite play, just make it a standard play in the other direction.

                You appear to be drawing dead with the 2 teams you are live too. Congrats on getting this far though. Maybe next year.
