should i hedge this or would that be a waste

MickeyMan · 11-08-10, 05:08 PM

Yeah I would make some sort of hedge, just can't say no to guaranteed money

keith22 · 11-08-10, 05:11 PM

No brainer, got to hedge.

goduke · 11-08-10, 05:11 PM

yeah i know but like green bay last night, I just cant see pitt losing tonight. I just dont want to ruin the value in the parlay by hedging it on a team that might not have any shot at winning

jhack704 · 11-08-10, 05:24 PM

then hedge a little, put 200 on cincy straight up that would bank you almost 500 profit, if pitt wins then you profit 1700. thats what i would do and hope pitt wins if not your up 300 cuz of the 200 you put on the parlay

Definitely hedge dude you would be crazy not to. A division game in Cinci and your getting Bengals ML at + money.

Don't be greedy and take the guaranteed money even though I believe the Steelers win.

Great situation to be in. You should hedge the +5.5 points on Bengals, and you'll might end up winning both plays!

I might do this, the idea of winning both is enticing

But the juice on Bengals -5.5 is -110 @ my book right now and you would have to lay $220 to win $200 to cover your parlay.

If you played the Bengals ML which is @ +205 at my book you would only have to lay $100 to win $205.

I don't know why the fuk I care so much about your parlay do whatever you want

lol i dont know why either. But seriously I appreciate the advice very much. Thanks!

What about $110 to win $100 on CIN +5.5 then $100 to win $220 ML.

If PITT wins you're up the most obviously, so that's what you want to happen. If CIN wins you get the $220+$100 = $320 or $120 profit ($320-$200). The nice thing about playing the side is if PIT wins you can still get the extra $100 if they cover +5.5 and you'd only be paying really $80 to win $2k instead of $200 or however you want to look at it. $200 ML pays more but you are guaranteed a loss of $200 if PIT wins...obviously.

TAKE CINCY ML for 300 you crazy not too dont get fancy and take the points

chiliv5 · 11-08-10, 06:40 PM

ManBearPig makes some sense go with his idea!

drfunkmaster · 11-08-10, 06:41 PM

remeber the patriots game.. If you took cincy +5.5 and they win by 7 you will be like what the hell why i did i just not take ML. Trust me... you gonna win a grand either way.

goduke · 11-08-10, 10:47 PM

thanks guys i ended up not doing any hedging. I just cant trust cincy for anything and didnt want to waste a penny on them

goduke · 11-08-10, 10:55 PM

anyone want to see why i will hate the thunder for the rest of the year? This is worth a good chuckle.
