Last Tuesday, I bet $336 to win $300 on Atlanta -6.5 vs. NYJ. The line is now available at -7.5. Should I bet the Jets +7.5, shooting for a middle? If so, whats the maximum price I should pay?
Edit: How does the analysis differ if I can get Jets +8 or +8.5?
Further edit: The game is now available at 5Dimes at +9 +105. My suspicion that the line at -6.5 was a good buy was correct. Now I need help making the proper decision.
You can find the Jets at +8.5 I think it's a pretty decent middle. I thought about doing it to just stop the bleeding from yesterdays ugliness, but I think I'll just stick with ATL and take it like man.

Thx...See my edited post....It was edited due to your post in the other thread. At +9 +105, its gotta be good, no?

Sorry the 5Dimes line is +9 -125.
Personally, if I still liked the -6.5, I wouldn't middle the entire amount. Then again, my opinion is probably not worth much /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I'm in a similar situation. I have a live $200 teaser that pays almost $2400, with ATL at -1/2 as the final game, and am trying to figure out the best way to hedge/middle it.
Seems like $1000 on NYJ plus the points is pretty safe, but I can't help think the 1st half line (I've found +4.5 +105) is the best chance to win both ways. No way Vinny brings them back on the road from 5+ down at halftime to win the game outright, is there?

Or you could bet the Jets ML for ~$500.

Yeah, that was the first play that came to mind- and it may end up being exactly what I do. But the middle opportunities are just so tempting here. Anyway, I'm glad I waited until today's line moves to decide.
On a side note, does anyone know if BetJamaica's site is down?

Personally I think the Jets are the 'right' side so I would suggest you get the best possible number and buy back. Now -6.5 is also a great number considering what the market is and how its under the key 7.
methinks you buy back 50-75% (only because you originally liked ATL, personally I buy back 100%) of the wager, but at a good number. i can get +8.5 +100 right now, so somethign in that range would be nice.

Ok, maybe I'll take the leap. I got +7.5 +106.6 at TradeSports which is certainly comparable and probably better (8 hits about 0.75% of the time). How is sports interaction during hoops season?

I just opened an account there to add another unit to my NYJ bet.
I've got 3 units riding on this, meaning that the Falcons are a lock.

nice. I'd love to read a booting letter from a book that offers no grounds for the removal other than "I'm tired of you beating us and using our dog lines"....unless there's something I'm missing.

No level low enough to stoop to remain a going concern.

I heard they boot you after you've won a certain amount, I think $10,000 was mentioned.
