You guys with the hedging. It's simply not good practice and a waste of mental energy. It's like buying insurance in blackjack, sure you feel good when it hits, but in the long run its costing you money. Hedging is buying back at a premium. Do you guys also do this on all your straight wagers? Team up 15 at the half so you buy out on the other side?
This game is about the sum of money you win, not about the number of wagers that show a profit. I hope people on here understand that last sentence.
As i said earlier i had Tampa to win the WS have never thought for a second to hedge anything. I believe in them, they are winning, why would one ever bail or give back a cent in +ev. It's hard enough to win at this game let alone give back a percentage to the books on your hits. Now sure, if a book had the Dodgers +300 to win this series then i'll hedge out.
