hedge betters never win, and winners never hedge is what we say at the craps table. # you'd just be adding more juice (more bets action etc). #2 When the original bet wins your just pissing away some of the profits.

I assume that you've already partially hedged in this series. I really haven't looked at the numbers, but I'd guess the Marlins would be around +200 to the Yanks and around +150 or so against the Red Sox. Like I said, those are just guesses. I haven't had a chance to really look at what the pitching matchups might be and calculate from there.

Also, Bigtomma's advice of hedging with the Cubs RL tonight is probably the worst thing that you could possibly do here.

You swung for the fences when you made the bet. Would you settle for a ground rule double in the bottom of the 9th down 3 runs w/bases loaded??? No, so why hedge, the friggin ball is in the air on it's way. You only live once.

Looks like tV network interference will probaly cost you tonight though. They want the cubs.

I HOPE FOR YOUR SAKE YOU DIDN'T OR ANY ONE EVER READING THIS EVER HEDGES. The casinos were built on hedge betters anf people pissing back their winnings. THE biggest hedge bet of them all insurance in blackjack (never ever take it).

Or you can wait. Then when the Fla Fish are up 2-0 in the WS, you can get a great price on either the Sox or yanks. I think it will be the Sox who win game 7 tonight, and we will see a FLA vs BOS World Series. I just can't see what could stop Pedro from possibly his ONLY chance to ever get to the BIG GAME. The Rocket has been there and done that, and the yanks have been to the series about 5 too many times. Steinbrenner's Evil empire goes down in FLAMES tonight. Yet again, I think we will see a 2 WILD CARD World Series. Watch out for the scrappy play of the Marlins in the series. This team will not give up, as we all have witnessed. I wish I would've got down on FLA at 45-1 when you did BH. Although I did get down on the Sox at +275 for the series, after they were down 2 game to 1. I will not hedge on my series play, for I think the sox get it done! Gl Bloodhounds GO SOX!!!
