I realized that I have a play (Ohio to win the MAC) at +1000 at Bet Islands, and 5dimes has the opposite play (Field to win the MAC) at -785. So I could either let my 1 unit bet ride with a possible 10 unit payout or hedge 7.85 units and make it a bet risking nothing with a potential payout of only 2.15 units.
My question is whether or not it's worthwhile. Obviously, risking nothing to win something is attractive, but it involves tying up a lot of your bankroll for more than three months (MAC Championship is early December).
My initial lean is that, provided you like the original bet, it's not worthwhile. But if you don't like Ohio, is it worth tying up 9 units (in my case, roughly 20% of the bankroll) for a whole season just to win 2 units, even with no risk of loss?
I'd appreciate people's thoughts, and if anyone really likes the idea, you know where to play it.
