    How do you hedge a tiebreaker total for tonight's MNF Bills/Hawks?
    I picked 43 for the total. One entrant has 37 and another 50 and 51. So I win with anything between 40 and 46. Just an over under or a range from props. I really don't want to do it but I lost with the tiebreaker in the Houston/Denver game a few weeks ago. I had 40 the winner had 35. I don't want to lose like that again. Give me the best possible way to hedge a tiebreaker. Thanks

      Under 41 +119 on 5 dimes....gunna be low scoring IMO gives u 5 points on the over to still win ur other bet.

            Can you tease one line or is that just an alternate line.

              youre in a bad spot stuck in the middle, i really dont see how hedging works, i thought hedging only works if you are sure of winning 1 bet, i just dont see it here, just hope it falls on your spot and save the hedge

                  I'm thinking of doing a range prop that sandwiches my number. 5Dimes has a nice little range that I may buy into. That would protect me and assure a win if the score is anywhere between 36 and 56. The only way I don't win anything is if the number is under 36, over 56, and 47,48,49. Let's see how lucky I get. I win outright with 40-46. I can't stand by idle this time after being so close a few weeks ago.

                  Mon 11/7 5011 BUF/SEA total points 36-42 +345
                  8:30PM 5012 Any other result -430

                  Mon 11/7 5013 BUF/SEA total points 43-49 +340
                  8:30PM 5014 Any other result -425

                  Mon 11/7 5015 BUF/SEA total points 50-56 +459

                      Did you hedge. I was going to say live bet one side then hope it goes to the next and hedge again. IF it doesn't go to the other side then you are only againts one guy

                        I didn't expect this much early scoring. I'm done. Will probably go over 56 too. I was worried that the Bills wouldn't score 10 points the entire game

                          I don't know how I caught the 56. That game was headed to 70 points at one time.
