Earlier in the year, I placed to futures bets on the SuperBowl winner. I got SF at +4200, and DEN at +40000. I want to try hedging these if possible.

I considered betting each remaining opponent of the two teams, but I'm not sure if it makes sense for SF, and definitely not DEN. NO is only -200, so it's a possibility. However NE is -850, so I definitely can't see hedging it this way.

I also considered betting the field on SuperBowl futures, but there are too many teams left for this to be profitable.

Is it too early to try hedging, or am I missing another possibility?

Thanks in advance!

way too early

also, why the fukk did you bet futures if you knew you'd want to hedge? why didnt you just bet denver to beat the steelers.

how much do you have on each?

Try a bal/ne/gb ml parlay. This will open up a lot of things of both sides if you lose.

Also a NO/NE ml parlay is not a bad idea. Try getting better lines though.

This.
Let it ride and see what happens. My Denver future is all I have left (thanks ATL and DET).

He said he placed the futures bets much earlier in the year.

Only if Denver beats the Pats does your Denver future have any serious value, and by serious value I mean as a % of your original bet. Right now, on a $1 bet it's probably worth like $5. And my guess is you put $20 on it.

I placed these in like week 6 or something just for fun. At the time, I never even considered what I'd do if they made it this far, because I never really expected it to happen. Now that it's here, I figured I should check out my options to lock in some profit. I did get DEN at +310 against PIT too .

Thanks for the ideas. I can see how there could be value in the NO/NE parlay.
