    Another "hedge or not to hedge" thread

    yesterday locked in germany -133 as the final leg of a three teamer, risked $88 to win $360 and hit the first two legs. hedge with denmark +1 or 1.5 or let it ride? germany is up to around -170 ish now....

    listen, you only hedge if the amount to be won is a lot of money to you. for example, the guy that had ~$6000 on the line yesterday shoulda definitely hedged...

    I would'nt hedge. Germany and Spain are the 2 most consistent european teams. If Germany chokes it will be against an ultra defensive team like Spain or Italy and not Denmark.

    $88 at risk? I'd let it ride. You can get that back easily.

    Hedging while trading currency is #1 way to make money per transaction. Every single one closes in green.

    hedging is almost always a bad decision,
    and germany will more than likely win this game, the line has jumped to -180 at pinny

    I had Russia as last leg of a 4 teamer yesterday.

    Hedged at the last minute before match on a draw.

    Double loser LOL

    its like GK said. its all about how much the money means to you.

    you could put 200 on Denmark +1

    Germany wins by 2+ you make about 160
    Denmark wins or push you make about 100
    Germany wins by 1 you make 360
