Seahawks Winning SuperBowl!! Need Help

Hi Everyone,

I have been enjoying everyone picks and opinions this season.
I need some advice since iam heading to Vegas this Sat & Sun.
I placed a bet before the season at 12/1 odd(300.00 to win 3,600 @ Ballys) on Hawks to win SuperBowl.(LMAO)

Then last weeked game Props had Seattle at 48/1 @ Sportbet?? so i placed another 50 to win 2,400.00. I went ahead and not insure last week game against Washington Redskins.

This week, They are playing Green Bay!! Should i gamble and risk all of 350 and lose it or put some insurance on it by playing reverse on Green Bay??

Not sure how i can bet GB ML to win and make some profit!

There has to be a way to make some money on my bets!!!



I need Help!!

Thanks Guys!

Honestly i think you should not try to cover the loss and kiss your $350 goodbye because if you must put down at least 1k to on GB ML to cover your loss. What if Seattle beat Green bay you will loss over 1K then the championship game how much do you think you will have to put down to cover loss... then the superbowl.... Sorry but i don't think it's a good ideal to cover this bet. Just my 2 cents. Honestly i think GB may play superbowl this year.

there has to be a way putting out 350 with 6,000.00 gap to win something in between...lol

Thanks Romanowski!!!

have to wait 1 more week imo....then i would hedge...

your other option involves a lil bit of risk, but you could parlay gb moneyline with colts or ne or dal moneyline... whicever you feel will win...this will cut the odds down to get reasonable payoff. again, this involves risk this way. but i would do this

2nd half bets can be an option sometimes too.

Thanks guys!! some great advise!!
Reminder, i bet this way back when 12/1 was a fair chance not knowing
Alexander going to no part of Hawks running game.
secondly not knowing Pats are so far ahead of everyone else!!

Another good idea Bisket...that would only work if Seattle takes the lead going into the half by big margin, which means GB will be fav the second half.

I might have to ride the storm !!

What are the chances of Hawks winning this one!! 22/1 ???


Thanks Bisket!!

Vegas, I have 6k worth of gap to play with. I might just do a 2 team teaser-7parlay by parlay GB-1 and NY Giants +16 and bet 500 and still make money.

If Hawks beats GB straight up,,,I will teaser again on the next game...!!

But you are right!! why go thru the stress !!

If somehow Seattle can make past GB...and NY upset Dallas.

Seattle versus NY Giants in NFC Championship!!

I feel good that Seattle might be a slight home favorite or at least Pickem against NY Giants.

I know it is wishful thinking !!

GL Vegas!!

Ok Guys, after getting some opions from you guys!! Iam going to gamble and go with my gut feeling here. Knowing this might be my last post in here!!
I just transferred money from my probation officer (wife) account and placed this bet before heading to Vegas. I know she will freak out knowing i placed this bet offshore thru my friend's account.

This bet has nothing to do with trying to recover my stupid 350.00 bet.

I just dont feel GB will blow out Seattle, Seattle is not a great road team, but in the playoffs on the road, Seattle covered as 11 pt underdog last yr against CHicago and barely lost in OT by 3 pts.
With Romo already starting his early Cabo vacation with Jessica. Cant he waited to get his pipe's clean in Dallas or after the playoff!! I hope she will show up again to watch him. Hard for Dallas to beat NY Giants 3 times in one season. I remember GB beat Minny twice and lost big time the third time.

Indy team is healthy again for the playoff, just dont think SD can win it without Antonio Gates! I know SD have had success with Indy, but i feel
Indy can cover easy.

Here it is: Teaser Wager

Team 1 NFL [101] SEATTLE +14-110 Jan-12 16:30

Team 2 NFL [106] INDIANAPOLIS -2˝-110 Jan-13 13:00

Team 3 NFL [107] NY GIANTS +13˝-110 Jan-13 16:30

Risking $500 To Win $850

Best of Luck Everyone
