    Wasn't this two years ago ?

    I also remember something crazy happened to Minnesota the night before that game, a player was threatening to kill someone and was arrested or something like that

    *How much will you kick yourself if you don't hedge & lose, or even hedge and the greed makes you have regrets that you did
    Great questions to ask oneself. $8000 is a good chunk of dough. It would hurt for a few days of the play would lose but wouldn’t cause me to lose my house, cars, etc. Majority of the sting would come from knowing 8000 in the account would allow me wager enough to generate more wealth while also still being able to display good BR Management (complete opposite of what I just did).

    I would have some frustration if I didn’t hedge atleast a little if by chance the Jets won just because a few hundred on the Jets ML goes such a long way. I am leaning 3-4 hundo. To back the Jets for 800 bucks seems nuts regardless of the payout

    $800 Jets ML @ +578 = 4,624 profit

    current ML parlay risk amount = 4,700
    current ML parlay profit amount = 3,200

    so if Hawks win and you hedge with Jets ML, you profit 3,200 - 800 = 2,400

    but if Jets win and you hedge with Jets ML, you profit 4624-4700 = -76

    After plenty of thought I have decided to let my parlay ride on the Seahawks tomorrow. The value on the Jets ML is very intriguing at +650 but I can’t come to terms with laying money on the lowly Jets. Any other team (minus the Jags) I think I would hedge here but I can’t think of scenario or angle to why the Hawks shouldn’t come out victorious. The facts are Hawks need to win to stay in the division hunt and the Jets need to lose to stay in the Lawrence hunt....I could end up regretting this decision mightily but have to go with my gut here....GO HAWKS!!!

    Wait until 1H is over. You may not need to hedge if the Seahahwks are up by 3 TDs.

    up to +750 now at Betonline

    now you would only need to risk $626 on the Jets ML to win the risked $4,700 back

    even if the Jets lose, you'd still profit $2,574 (instead of $3,200)

    Sharp post. It would be a no brainer for me. It's the NFL. Anything can happen. Hedge it.

    yep, now only $566 required to hedge

    locks in either of profit of $3200 or $2634, or a $0 loss

    seems like a simple decision if he's even one bit unsure

    As initially leaning I decided to let it ride on the Hawks ML. Made a very small play on Jets ML and also teased Jets to +23.5 and the Packers -1.5 just so today isn’t potentially a complete catastrophe. Let’s GO!
