Default Should i go for it or hedge????

After a longgg break, decided to try my luck at College Football, mixing capping and following decent cappers...the results....

* [Win] Northwestern -11 -110 on Syracuse - Northwestern [Sat, Aug 30 12:00PM] [College Football]

Best of luck to everyone today

You have to hedge on Colorado for about 1K, IMO. Tennessee you could roll the dice.

You should definitely hedge. Like the person said above, some is better than none.

For me it depends on the size of your roll, which from betting 200 on a multi team parlay tells me it is quite large. So, if losing 200 is alot then hedge, but if winning 4400 is a slightly above average win for you then let it ride.

IT depends on your personal situation sir- now if it were me-you can get UCLA +7 even money at some places, and I would want to make something for sure. Perhaps 2k on UCLA+7 even money. You did a great job of handicapping-you cannot go broke by taking a profit- good luck to you.

decided to only hedge a little bit on Colorado St, to win 750 if C St. had covered, they didn't, so i'll take the over 3k profit!!!! Thanks for everyone's opinions, much appreciated, hopefully i'll post a winner for next week!
