    8 of 10 10 teamer. Hedge? W2G & taxes?
    Hey guys. I've got 2 games to go with Atl -2.5 and Eagles -14.5. I'm thinking I'll put $500 on saints + and if Atl covers I'll put $1500 on the Vikes. Are they gonna pull a W2G when I go to cash?

    Good Luck to you! I always like hedging. But you have to hedge two games. Again, Good Luck and let us know how you are going to play this. I'm curious to see how you do.
    As far as taxes I would think any one time win over $1200 is taxable. If so, You might want to lower your hedge on the Eagle game.
    Not sure though, maybe someone from Vegas can chime in.

      Is having an extra 1500 going to change your life?

      Is having an extra 4k going to change your life?

        No, it will just give my degenerate @ss some more cheddar to blow on bowl and playoff games. I just figure it's nice to walk away with something vs nothing.

          Then do 500 on NO, this gives you 100 more bets, if Atl wins and covers then do 1000 on Minn.

          If u win parlay then u get 2500

          Lose and pick up 500

                Hedge for sure! I've been in similar situations before with only 1 game to go and I liked the game so much that I didn't hedge and my greed costs me nice paydays. No matter what make sure you lock up at least $500. I like counterfiet100's idea, think its the best way to go, but if you'd like to try and win a little more just make sure the min. you can win is $500. You did too good a job with those picks not to get atleast that much.

                  HEDGE IMMEDIATELY

                  Youve already 'won', plus ATL is going down tonight

                    Why not tease New Orleans and Minnesota? Then you could possibly win both!

                      This is what I would do.

                        I wouldn't. I think Philly could win by more than 21 points pretty easily, even with a 7 point teaser.

                            Hedge! 700 NO (-770). If NO wins, you walk away +695. If NO loses, you are -775 going into the last leg. Put 1400 (-1540) on MIN. Worst case scenario, you walk away with +/- 700, best case, +/-1600. Take the guarantee.
