Letting it ride is still an option and even if both lose I've had a profitable season, but I just wanted to understand my options with the help of some more experienced sports bettors. 1st Scenario - Either let it ride or guarantee yourself ~$100 in profit betting PIT ML using the hedge calculator. 2nd Scenario - I'm in the same boat as you and you can hedge this because the colts game is SNF. Depending on your thinking...an example on the very left of the spectrum (if you are confident the Jags could win but want to hedge) - you could bet Texans ML $495 to win $165. IF Texans win... profit = $0 IF Texans lose... your future bet placed turns into a straight Colts ML ticket at $165 to win $2239 From here you could use the hedge calculator to guarantee profit of ~$1,200. I will be choosing to be on the opposite side of the spectrum and am expecting a Texans win so I will be betting a large sum on Texans ML... and then if that loses leaving just enough wiggle room to breakeven with a TEN ML ticket. Let me know if you have questions - I am using https://www.bobbybucks.com/hedge_calculator.php as my calculator. |

With you here got it early at -4. My only worry is the weather. 10am start for Seattle plus forecast of 1 degree at gametime. I think I like MIN TT Under better but a D/ST score and you probably lose that. All that said I see SEA winning by 7+.

The proof of 2015: Why you will have longterm success when capping the fundamentals of this game

Stop thinking there is no way it can be fixed. Open your eyes. People who think/know its fixed still will bet the games and the NFL knows that. My eyes are open. Tell me the most obvious fixed game this year and I'll watch on gamepass.

Yeah I think William Hill said that 86% of the money was on the Jets. There is no way that is correct.

There was nothing that said the Bills would win. LOL. You can't think of any??
This line was not "fishy at all". Jets giving 3 points on the road equals giving 9 points at home. If the line in NY was Jets -9 wouldn't everyone be on Buffalo??? You have to take into account the 3 points you get for HFA. This was one of the best motivational spots of the year!!!!! Rex Ryan, known as one of the biggest players/ motivational coaches in the league going against the team that fired him for a chance to keep them from going to the playoffs??? What more could you want?? AND you get 3 points at home. Not to mention they had already beat them IN NY earlier in the year. Not to mention this is a divisional rivalry with or without Rex. Not to mention the Jets played like garbage in the previous two games and were fortunate to win both. My guess is some books actually needed the Jets in this game due to all the big money coming in on the Bills. The Jets couldn't cover 3 on the road against DAL. Now giving 3 points on the road to BUF against one the best motivational spots all year is a "fishy line". lol If it helps you win to think there is a fix go ahead. It's much easier to cap games using things that are true imo

Carroll has said repeatedly that he won't rest players and its not in his DNA. The Seahawks are not scared of anyone and would not lose a game on purpose to play a certain team. I guarantee that. This is a classic overreaction to last week. ARI beat up a team thought to be good, GB, while SEA lost to a bad team in STL.

don't know why nfl teams dont attempt an onside kick after accepting a personal foul
in NFL Betting
You're right. At least one team should be doing this.
I hate how on defense at the end of the half, teams don't just grab every defender, get a defensive holding call, waste time, and make em kick a FG.

NFL underdogs of 7-plus points are 28-17 ATS (62.2 percent) this year. SIX GAMES WEEK 14

I'd rather take note of a pattern and use it to my advantage in certain spots then blindly follow it and hope it continues. I think the favorites go 3-3 ATS in these games this week. Balt is unplayable with Clausen. See Week 3 Bears @ Seahawks. SD is unplayable because looks like they have nothing to play for. Not gonna be in SD next year, Mccoy will be fired, and their injury report is terrible. We will see what happens tomorrow.

ATL +8
TEN +7 SD +10 BAL +13 DAL +7 OAK +7 Let's see how this continues to play out. SD & BAL are unplayable imo. I like ATL & TEN to cover. OAK & GB have moved to 6.5 or a juiced 7. Will possibly live bet these. |
