Should I Hedge Tonight?

10-03-11, 01:51 PM

I have $500 (to win 434.80) on a teaser with the last leg being Colts +21.5.

I really like the Colts to cover the +10, but should I hedge anyway? 5dimes is offering Tampa Bay -18.5 at +247, also Tampa wins by 19-24 (+575), 25-30 (+975), 31-36 (+1600).

Should I hedge?

Which method?

How much?

I think if I were to hedge, I'd put $220 or so on the -18.5 line to win $543.40 that way I come out on top either way... But I think I'm going to let it ride. Thoughts? 5 points for best 'mathematical' answer.

In hindsight, I should have teased the Bucs and now it would be more profitable to put some money on the Colts ML... Next time lol

money line on tamp or wait for half time as wizard said. halftime bet will be awesome for you unless tampa scores 28+ points...
maybe you don't have to hedge if the colts are leading by 10+ at halftime (not to likely)

At this point, should I just let it ride?
