    Need a play to close out a teaser

    What's the play here? It is a 6 point 4 teamer that is paying +300. Is tonight's game good, or should I just wait till next week? (liking TB-5.5) Should you hedge teasers?


    Select an Open Teaser to close.
    $200.00 4 Team Teaser
    10/2/2011 1:00PM Detroit Lions +7 vs Dallas Cowboys
    10/2/2011 1:00PM New Orleans Saints -4 vs Jacksonville Jaguars
    10/2/2011 8:30PM New York Jets/Baltimore Ravens Over 37

    You certainly could hedge if you wanted. Does your book offer alternate lines? 5dimes has Colts +7.5 +132 and +6.5 +170.

    You could add TB to the teaser, then pick either the 6.5 or 7.5 straight to try to middle it, and play it for $150-200. Guarantee yourself a profit, with the potential for a sweet middle.

    Or wait til next week. Neither of these teams tonight are worth putting money on IMO, especially not with the $800 swing you're looking at.

    Thanks rsnnh12, I play with 5Dimes and will probably try to middle it.

    I'd just play TB down to PK. I can't see how Indy goes into Tampa tonight and wins. Does anyone even know who's playing QB for the Colts? I'd assume Painter, but I read that Indy was trying out veteran QB's this week.

    Hopefully you took the +7.5

    Let us know what you ended up doing. You guaranteed profit no matter what if you did hedge, so can't argue against that, right? More bankroll is more bankroll, no other way to cut it.

    Big night for me. I middled it.

    First time I have ever bet open teasers.
