    Hedge? Or let it ride?!?!
    I have the falcons +11.5 as the 4th leg of a 13pt teaser ($130-$100)

    Im contemplating playin pats ML+130 for $100 and guaranteeing at worst a push...

    i realize this would take away my +++EV play, but if the pats somehow beat the falcons by 12+, im still left standing here holding my d*ck and $130 poorer which is ~2.5 units to me (if that matters...?).

    What do you guys suggest I do?
    Feedback will be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!

    Lean on Pats tonight, but 11.5 sounds a lot. It would be smarter to hedge, no question... but cmon... don't be a pusy... no risk, no fun. But... why don't you play NE -11 instead?

      Well it wouldnt be an issue but im up like 1/1.5 units on the weekend and i dont wanna give most of it back when i should be hedging with a huge window for the pats to win by 1-11. Granted its an underdog going into the ga dome and beating a dominant home team/qb on sunday night, but crazier things have happened today...(see: sea/hou game)...

        You have dirty birds @ home + 11.5 and your nervous?

        They do call this gambling.

        You have no worries.

              I never said i was nervous...i obviously like the falcons here or i wouldnt have made the play. The question is what should i do? In general...independent of who/where/when? Or what would you guys do?

                Is this simply wishful thinking from a homer, boston boss?

                If not, stop drinking asap + put bong away.

                    Posts like this are exactly why everybody is leaving this forum. Earth to you! You're not a GD comedian. I asked a question because i thought this was a sports betting forum where some colleagues might have some educated responses...not the apollo. Thanks for your constructive feedback tho, you fu*kin prick.

                    And yes its called gambling, but its still an educated, calculated risk, no? Im just wondering what everyone thought. Thats it
