    You have an oppurtunity to win $560. If you put two hundred on Ravens, they can lose and still cover. I only hedge if I have to have the win. If bowl season and playoffs have treated you well, take the extra gamble with a bit of insurance with Ravens and the points to only lose $20. Could be $760 profit. If you liked em two weeks ago stay with the gut and goodluck.

    I've got ravens futures at +1100 and +850. I'm leaning Baltimore ML, so I probably just won't bet it, and let my futures ride. From a financial perspective on gambling, you've got Baltimore at +800 to win this game, when the real line is somewhere between +150/+200. That's an extremely +EV situation, so you would only hedge if you think niners ML has value.

    At least wait till HT if you going to hedge, basically have your online sport-book account [if you have one] opened ready for action, something is ALWAYS better than nothing but don't hedge it now

    I have +800 also, am not hedging, but it depends on how vital the
    amount you wagered on it is to your bankroll. Example you wagered
    $100 to win $800, would place just enough $ on 49ers ML to get
    your original funds back, I can see that.

    doing that is just another bet, because if the 49ers are up by a TD at half,
    they will be even more expensive. He would need a substantial Ravens lead
    at half to get the ML hedge at a more advantageous price than now.
    Not worth the addtl risk.

    Waiting until halftime is dumb, you likely are just paying larger vig for a bet with the same expected gain.

    What i think ill do is hedge my 220 only if Ravens get up big before halftime so i wouldnt have to shell out much....49rs have a way of coming back fast late in game so i will take a gamble and probably leave it alone untill game time..I hope ravens punch 9nrs in mouth...so live ml goes +800 SF lol...

    SF +203 and I'm thinking about hedging. Flacco just has that Eli hot streak glow right now plus their O-line isn't letting anyone touch him. SF is better but this is close to a tossup imo. GB>Pitt and Giants + points were easy...this one isn't.

    LOL, yea wait until halftime when the Ravens are down 2 or more td's. Then you would have to lay what -1500 or so. There hasnt been this big of a sinch betting oppurtunity since Obama was elected over McCain in 2008. Its gonna be like Men playing against boys in this one.

    Right.... cause a team that won back to back games in Denver and Foxboro is just going to roll over and die.

    If you like them in this game to win, then I'd just hedge the original $220. Even if you lose, you break even if you do that. The fact that you're asking this question makes it obvious to me that the answer is "yes".

    They wont roll over and die willingly, I really do respect what Baltimoe has done since crushing the Giants in late December but they are facing a new beast this game. No Panzy Patriot defense or terrible coaching performance from John Fox to help them here.

    I am in the same situation, with 10€ stake on +1900. I won't hedge it for this low odds, but if the Ravens take the lead, I won't hesitate on a better odds than evens...

    I would let it ride. Baltimore is going to win but if you're not sure then wait until Halftime and you might want to decide to hedge your bet.

    If you were a real sharp like me you got them at +4000 when they were at their lowest ebb. I've already layed it off and hedged for a guranteed $4000+ profit. And I'll be putting some of that on the 49ers ML and spread. Well before squares like Paulapoker got on the bandwagon.
