    To Hedge or not to Hedge. That's the question.

    It should be a no brainer here but something is holding me back. I could easily hedge this with $193 on the Rams at +260 to win $500 but I kind of want to let it ride. Thoughts?

    What is your bankroll? If $500 is like 20-25% (or greater) of your roll then you hedge.

    I would put $250 on the Rams +7. A road favorite is never a great teaser leg, and you could hit a middle for big bucks.

    Spar- The game is in London, so there really is no "road favorite" in this case.
