Hedging Advice and Suggestions (please share)

how do you pick your spots when hedging a bet?

how much do you hedge or what % of your original bet do you hedge if you are playing a 2nd half?

I believe i have cost myself some money this season by not hedging successfully and not picking correct spots

2 examples for you 1 successful, 1 unsuccessful and i picked my spots arbitrarily...

I had Iowa +7 for game @ wisconsin. I believe they were leading by about 3 at the half. I took Wisconsin -4 for the second half. The middle came through nicely. I had 1.5 units on iowa and 1.5 units on wisc 2nd half.

Ex 2...I had NYJ +4 (bought .5) against the giants this weekend...i know they were up at the half. I'm don't remember by how much. If i hedge my bet with a 2nd half play on the giants, I may lose the jets bet, but i cash with the giants. Did I play this correctly by letting it ride?

Any opinions would be much appreciated. This is an aspect of betting that will help me greatly this season.

okay here is another example for you...had bills tonight....1 unit on +11 (bought .5) and .25 units on ml. Bills are up 7 at half. My shop has Dallas -7 (-110) for about 30 seconds. I don't play it. I could have had another middle. Opinions?

last post is incorrect...i would not have hit a middle. i would have lost the 2nd half cowboys play.

i was tired when i made that last post...2nd half bet at -7 would have won.

Okay so here lies the dilemma. I let my bills bet ride and won with that. However, if i make a hedge play i hit both. I also lost my moneyline play which sucks and it would have been salvaged with a 2nd half cowboys play.
