    Heritage - Get out your bet. CFB Thursday Houston at Cinci
    I love these get out of your bet at the half with Heritage. It's basically a free play. If things don't look great, you can bail at half and not continue with the bet.

    I'm riding Houston in this one, laying the points on the road. Greg Ward is back after a week of rest and RB Duke Catalon returns as well. Cinci offense is good but I don't think it's good enough to keep up with the HTown Takeover.

    The max bet is $250 on these get out of your bets. I'm not sure why I bought a point because if it's not a huge lead at half, I'm more than likely bailing. But this is what I got.

      That's probably the best move BUT if Cinci is up by let's say 7, 14, even 17 points, would you feel confident that they could maintain that lead into the 2nd half? My thinking is that Houston will most likely be up double digits at half and I'll let it ride much more than if Cinci is up by a small margin.

          Houston only beat cinci by 3 last year at home. I don't see much of a difference from either team since last year. I gotta think cinci covers the +8

            Get the parachute ready. Cincinnati is just one of those teams that always seems to play Houston close.

              straight bets only on spread no ML and you cannot buy/sell more than 1.5 pts and get out of the bet at the half. 250 max.

                  Not allowed to do ML as said in the rules. Or else it'd be too easy to just take 1 side and middle. And if there's no middle opportunity you could just get out

                  If you middle with the spread you're basically risking $25 to win $500. They're juicing this game at -110 instead of there normal -105

                  Also, you can buy/sell up to 2 points. But if you try to get Houston -9.5 you're still paying juice lol.


                  Obviously the play is to hit one of the sides for $275 to win $250 then decide what's best for you at half. IMO the optimal strategy is Cincinnati +7.5 -- 1 because I think it's the play and 2 because at half if you could get Houston ML at -110 or better you're just in such a great spot at getting middle and $500 profit.. If you don't have a middle option that you like then you obviously just get out of it

                    Read it again. "You can only cancel one wager per game" But, you can bet on more than 1 side can you not?

                    There's definitely some merit to betting Houston and Cincinnati and cancelling one of them. It's just unfortunate when Houston is up like 4, but you're in a pretty sweet spot by betting both. Cancelling 1 at half. And then either letting the better bet of the two ride or then also middle.

                    Sick stuff in play.

                      If $250 is way out of your BR management it's not a bad idea to go:

                      Houston -7.5

                      And if they are up say 10 or more at half play Cincinnati 2nd half ML which hopefully is +110 or better so worst case is you lose nothing and best case you're up +$550

                      I'd assume if Houston was up 10 or 14 then they'd still be no worse then -0.5 faves in the 2nd half.

                      Maybe I'm just a penetrating nerd, but all the different possibilities of this thing is really cool. Also, going to email them make sure I can bet both sides and get out of 1 at half.

                        I'm a penetrating moron. At first i figured you couldn't but didn't see it in the rules. All that thinking for nothing.....This is why I don't think.

                              Yeah, you can't place wagers on both sides... I think Houston is the safer bet. If they are up double digits at half, I feel comfortable letting it ride. I do not feel safe if Cinci is up double digits at half. Houston can come back very quickly which makes it hard to back Cinci even at home.

                              I think you ride Houston and keep the bet if they're up big. Anything else, you cancel.

                                The rules clearly state...

                                The straight wager must be on the full game side up to a maximum $250.

                                I'm pretty sure you can not wager more than $250.

                                Pretty simple rules. You can't bet like 1h or the 2nd half, it must be on the full game. Pick a side or under/over. That's about it. The over is a good gamble too especially if it comes close to hitting at half.

                                  Been doing this for years. Don't over think. Bet $250.00 on a side and evaluate at half. Case closed.

                                    I've called them on it before - do a live chat - they consider the amount to win the bet amount. I have done it before - x to win 250 and canceled it at halftime.

                                      This is good to know. Do you think they can adjust my current bet up to $250?

                                        I totally agree. It's basically a free play.

                                          I don't think so - only the first one counts - but there is always next time - gl on your bet!

                                            I emailed. You can do to win $250. And lines were back at there normal -105 which was nice.


                                            That's my play. I made it because I just simply think Cincy is the right side. If it's tied or Cincy is winning I'll probably let it ride. If they're losing even by 1 then I'll probably cancel.

                                            If they're in a good position at half and end up not covering I don't care too much, because for me to continue means I'm getting a really good +EV spot.

                                              I emailed. You can do to win $250. And lines were back at there normal -105 which was nice.


                                              That's my play. I made it because I just simply think Cincy is the right side. If it's tied or Cincy is winning I'll probably let it ride. If they're losing even by 1 then I'll probably cancel.

                                              If they're in a good position at half and end up not covering I don't care too much, because for me to continue means I'm getting a really good +EV spot.

                                              9/14/2016 8:31AM Spread 262.50 250.00 Football - 104 Cincinnati U +7½ -105 for Game
                                              I just think Houston is the better team and they are totally focused and prepared for this game. Herman has been planning for this game for 2 weeks and will have his QB and RB back. If the score is tied at half, I think UH has the better chance of stretching the lead. But, I just think UH will be up double digits at half. We shall see but hopefully whatever happens, let's hope one team is up big so it's not a tough decision at half.

                                                    Huh? You can't live bet your way effectively out of a bad bet. Great way to get middled though...

                                                    You can't beat Heritage's promo.
