    I’m a 99% Hedger in these situations, and only reason considering not to, is because I think I can find a better spot live and I had my worst weekend in about two seasons this Sunday.

    But I always say cannot let past bets affect future bets so will probably hedge for a dime-1600, will know closer to game time. Steelers off the field stuff feels like it’s spilling onto the field, hopefully they’re the desperate team tonight and Fitzpatrick goes back to being Fitzpatrick

      You will lose if you don’t hedge.

        If you have reached a point in your life, or in your gambling debt, that a GUARANTEED $1600+ win is not your only option, it really doesn't matter
        After seeing all of these comments I can't believe how foolish I was in the above quoted post
        Not only should you not hedge, you should throw another 50k on the Steelers
        That would prove what a gambler and cool guy you are

          Ask a non-gambler and take their advice. Otherwise, go straight degen and double down on Steelers +2

            theres statistical data behind what I was saying... not just throwing ideas around. Easy to throw criticism from behind your keyboard.

                Dude, what you are recommending is not a hedge. You realize that a "hedge" absolutely guarantees a profit right?

                  Why even add a Monday night game if your plan is to hedge?

                  If nothing has changed, regarding the game, you should just let it ride. Unless you need the money, and I guess you said it was a rough weekend. So, that might be another determining factor.

                  The decision is up to you, pal.

                      This. I’ll never understand hedging a 3 teamer on the last leg unless something has changed in your mind. Now if you can get the bucs +7 live then that seems like an option that makes sense.

                      I could see hedging a crazy 10 teamer that you never expected to get there before the last game started but why even put the Steelers in it if you’re going to hedge it and pay juice twice.

                        So it seems. He thinks I'm "criticizing" him when all I'm doing is pointing out the flawed logic.

                                    Nice win! I know you probably took Tampa second half and made some serious cash. At least hope you did. That one got tight.

                                      Small 500 bonus on ramp +13.5 but 300 of it was wiped out when they got to +825 around half time I bet 300 on them
