i need help with a hedge.

[bpoe13]

Large office type pool with around $1000 to the winner.

I am tied for the lead going into Monday night and have Balt. and 41 points as the tie breaker. 3 others have Balt and all have points under 41. One guy has KC and 42 points but is one win behind the 4 of us. The games have no spread, just pick the winner.

So, if Balt wins and the points are over 41, then im a winner. If KC wins, i need the point total right on 41 to win, 40.5 or 41.5 to split. If Balt wins and the point total is under 40 i do not win.

So what is my best bet to make sure i make something?

My book has, KC money line +210 and the under over at 41.5

Should i make 2 bets? One on KC money line and another on Balt & under parlay?

Thanks in advance,

POE

i see olympic has a total of 41 - so i will go with this line.

i would buy 1/2-point pushing the line to 41.5 and then bet UNDER (if the total is 41.5 - then fine - bet it under at this number).

if it lands exactly 41 - you hit the motherlode. if it goes under 41 you win the bet - if it goes over 41 - you win the pool

this is assuming baltimore wins

Advice concerning the totals sounds good. I would take KC and the points...if Baltimore wins and does not cover, you'll hit both.


You may want to take a look at a teaser.....under 47 and KC plus 12. You'll have to hit both, but you have a significant opportunity for a middle as well.
