I have hit 2 teasers at 10 points yesterday so I am now left with Greenbay +1'. Should I try and hedge my whole bet and take Washington +9. There are 10 winning numbers here. Please help. Thankz
What would you do in this situation?
- Thread starter ormond80
- Start date
I would consider betting Washington +340 on the money line. You also have a slight chance of Washington winning by 1 and hitting both bets. With the money-line you dont have bet as much to hedge, which will still insure a good teaser win if GB rolls.
Ormond,
It appears that many of us are in the same situation (or very close) with having Green Bay teased or on the ML to finish off a nice parlay or teaser. My feeling is that if you had a good weekend, then why not take a chance and go for a nice middle? If you didn't do so well on Sunday, then make sure you come out a winner no matter what. Here's what I plan on doing:
I have played 1 unit to win 4 on a four team ML parlay with Green Bay as the final team. I plan on wagering 2 units on Washington +9 to +10 (hopefully it gets up to +10) so that my worst case scenerio is that I come away with 1 unit if Washington somehow wins the game. If Green Bay wins in a blowout, then I come out approx. 2 units ahead. If Green Bay wins by less than 10 points, then I win six units. .. how can you beat that?!?!

Ormond.....here is my plan for you....
Put two units on the money line --- wait til just before game time and maybe you can get +400 for the Skins.
Also, try to hedge it. So if the Skins win, you win with your hedge and your money line and win big.....if the Pack blows them away, you are still up. If you hit the middle, you only lose two units on the ML and win big.....just my suggestions......GL tonight........

Yet another option, since I'm a HT player, is make a small wager on WASH M/L to cover your costs or insure a profit perhaps, and then wait til HT. IF GB is killing em by say 17-0 at ht, the linesmaker will still not make WASH a favorite, or if so, maybe a 2 or 3 pt favorite at most, in which case you get WASH +14 for the game or better, or you sit looking pretty knowing you got a 17 pt lead.
IF WASH is playing them tough and they're tied or GOD FORBID, leading, then you still have your M/L play going, and can make a TOTALLY new different decision....
PERSONALLY, I have GB on 3 Teasers going at -2, -2.5, and +1 and now that the line is at 10, I'm waiting on it. IF it hits 10.5, I'm taking WASH for sure. I cannot see GB losing at home on a MONDAY NITE as FAVRE is as good as you can get in a pressure type game, and MNF is that since you're on National TV. I truly believe GB wins this one, but WASH is stocked with veterans who will NOT be embarrassed again, especially NOT with the world watching, so look for them to hang around in this one. I think GB takes this one by 4-8 myself, and here's my final score.
GREEN BAY 27 Washington 20
