    well.. load up on pittsburgh. play action bet.

    then if dumpster is traded, the cubbies will be dogs. and possibly big ones.

    you can then lay some $ with the cubbies and in the end you might have made a profit already even before the game starts.

    but if the trade doesn't happen you would have to hedge and may lose on some $ if u don't let the bet ride

    That's not how betting action works. If you bet action and Dempster is traded, your bet is adjusted to the new odds.

    will the odds that you got originally with pitt be adjusted?

    Yes, that's what I'm trying to tell you.

    Betting action is not a good idea in general. If Dempster is traded and the reposted line is Pitt -135, your bet will be Pitt -135, not Pitt +105.

    If you think he'll be traded, don't bet and then you can line shop when a new line is posted.
