        If you stand to win a total of 360k and current odds are +105/-125, for a no juice line of +115, your current EV is 360k/2.15 = 167.4k

        167.4k is roughly how much your tickets are worth right now.

        At the absolute minimum, you should only consider offers at or above 150k. If you have the money, you could bet -125 other side and make guarantee 155-160k (busy so not going to do the math)

          If you had $200,000 available to bet other side, you could lock in a guaranteed profit of $154,444 with odds of -125

          Hedging Strategies

          A spectrum of hedging strategies exists, with three popular strategies shown below.
          Unbiased strategy

          This strategy aims to provide the same profit or loss regardless of the event outcome. This is achieved by placing a hedge bet of $205,555.56 on the opposing selection.
          The strategy:
          Original bet $10,000.00 37
          Hedge bet $205,555.56 1.8
          Profit / loss table:
          Original bet $360,000.00 $-10,000.00
          Hedge bet $-205,555.56 $164,444.45
          Combined wagers $154,444.44 $154,444.45
          Biased strategy towards original bet

          This strategy aims for no profit or loss if the hedge bet wins. This is achieved by placing a hedge bet of $12,500.00 on the opposing selection.
          If the original selection wins this strategy will provide a higher profit than the unbiased strategy.

                      No one can answer ... season bet, I wanna put $20k down on a single team. Should I just go to 5 different casinos and put 4k down at each? I'll probably move the line though ... damn
