NYJ +4 worth 31 units for me.. Bet NE -3?

Question

Wow. Crazy scenario for me. The NYJ/NE game, I have NYJ &#x2B;4 for two 4-team Parlays, and NYJ &#x2B;10.5 on an 8-Team, 6ptTeaser.... Pays 31.5 Units if they cover the &#x2B; 4....   Should I put 9-10 Units on NE -3 to cover the 3 lost bets and GUARANTEE a small profit at Least? What would you guys do?

At the -3, if NE wins by 3 I dont lose any of the big wins, either. I think I should be hedging this. At what amount though? That&#x27;s the question.

I&#x27;ve learned many times that hedging is the best thing to do.

Yeah... I would be SICK to actually LOSE MONEY, 3 bets worth... 3U, if NYJ got blown out. it&#x27;s a 34 Unit Swing. do you bet a Third? a Quarter? Half of the swing? I usually bet enough to cover the lost units, but win nothing, but this is a HUGE swing.

i would put a bunch on New England -3 as I think they win by 10 or more but goodluck

That&#x27;s not a bad idea, thanks. It&#x27;s nice to be worried about guaranteed moneys. Just wanna do it right. Start off the week with a decent amount. I am thinking of putting 80-100 on NE at -3. I think they will win by 3-7, kinda worried about NYJ with the Jim Leonhard injury. Belichick will exploit that void. How m/uch would you guys put on N.E. if it&#x27;s a 34 unit worth on the Jets?

Why did u put the bets on in the first place if u want to hedge?

Messier-11 · Answer

mb buy it down to new england-2.5 so if they win by a fg you win all bets. This will most likely be a close game....

I dont bet alot of money, but its 1 unit per play usually, this bet at &#x2B;4 is worth 31 units if they cover, and I lose 3 units if Jets dont cover.... I am going to take NE -3 for 15 Units to guarantee me AT LEAST a profit of 12 Units of NE covers... and 14.5 Units if Jets cover. I dont know what to do. Maybe I should let it Ride? You are right I might feel sick if my original play holds up, with the Jets. Because I bet against my original play. I think Imma hedge just enough to cover the potential lost units. Tough decision, really/. I dont wanna buy to -2.5 because there&#x27;s alot of Juice.

well put...If you play parlays, you play them to win big for a small investment not hedge away half your potential profits.  Having said that I think NE wins here so you probably have a dilemma. BOL  i hope make some good money
