If Hold a World Cup Futures Ticket.....

[Big Bear]

Do you hedge at the semi-Final stage and Final game?

or do you just hedge only if its down to 2 teams....

or do you let it ride?

on one hand if your teams ends up winning and you hedge you pretty much shoot yourself in the foot....

whats everybodys take? I guess if you got Holland +800 its a no brainer to hedge no?

[Boner_18]

Maxing ROI would say let it ride. As a rec gambler I usually hedge a little profit (10%) and keep the rest as a wager.

[uvarunthetable]

I still have a Germany future at 6/1 and a Netherlands future at 9/1, think I am just going to let em both ride (I hope they play each other in the final game)

You're a broke fukin loser with no bet on this so the point is moot.

All about your personal goals, bet amount compared to the wager, how much you like the given team in this game, etc

Do whatever the fukk you want

I have argentina at 112 to win 500

gonna let it ride all the way probably

[JOHON8]

You can hedge whenever you want, the point is to find the best time to do it so that you receive the most value. The bigger question is how much actual money did you put on the future?

[TonyTall]

cant hedge here. any team can win this

holland-tired but lineup intact
argentina-missing aguero, angel
brasil-missing stars
germany-overrated

total crapshoot

[convick]

Thought you had Germany and Brazil. Now you got Holland too?

Just throw a few units on Argentina. Easy profit, one of the four cashes.

Bear tells so many lies it's hard to keep track of them all.

[face]

argentina/brazil wc would be great
have brazil +330 and argentina +490
doesn't seem like they'll win though, germany looks like the good team

[pavyracer]

You let it ride until it loses.

[cala56]

100 to win 425 in 5dimes. (argentina)

[buddhamonk]

i hate to be the bear of bad news,

but there is absolutely 0 chance argentina wins this world cup

fifa would NEVER allow brazil's arch nemesis to win a world cup IN BRAZIL!!

think about it my dear friends

I agree Argentina has absolutely zero chance to win the World Cup but it's not b/c of FIFA not allowing it. That's crazy talk....

The reason is b/c they won't have
Di Maria or Aguero and the defense can't stop Holland's 3 headed monster.

Well its official I guess Argentina is going to win the World Cup now... Thanks in advance Big Bear

no chance man the defense is suspect and Di Maria being out is a huge blow.

doesn't matter bear doesn't bet

[Cookie Monster]

The correct answer for a sharp player is not to hedge, unless the bet percentage of bankroll is too high (which a sharp would seldom do), or the hedge bet is +EV by itself.

For a square, just hedge it all, so you are assured of a small win and feel smart.

[TheCentaur]

If you were going to hedge the final game why not just bet a team to make the final instead of win it?
