What I would do is put $300 on the moneyline and take a profit of about $800 assuming a ML of about +350.

my two cents

my two cents

i would take the points for the 4 to 5.

i think that's a lot of points.

good luck, man, and congrats on hitting the 6!!

thanks guys the moneyline right now for Cincy is +270

GO FIND YOU A 7.5, AND PLAY 440/400 ON cinct +7.5 OR BUY IT IF YOU HAVE TOO

daboyz,

i tried to post this a second again, but screwed up.

the ML at plus 270 makes much more sense than the points.

good luck.

Assuming I understand this correctly:

You want to insure your bet since you have 6 pieces in place.

In order to cover the last piece Atlanta has to win the game straight up.

I show Cincy at +250 right now on the moneyline.

SO, you can take $300 on the moneyline on Cincy and guarantee yourself at least a $550 net winner for the bet ($750 - $200 bet on the teaser). Not bad at all. If Atlanta actually wins then you have a net profit of $1000 ($1200 - $200 on the moneyline), also not bad since you win either way.

Actually I would make the play for the middle on Cincy as well, dropping a nickel on the play.

If Cincy doesn't cover the +8 then you end up even for all the plays.

If you hit the middle then you pick up $1500 profit for the plays. Personally, I like the idea of middling with a spread that large, but then I like to gamble.

THE ML PREVENTS BOTH SIDES HITTING PUT YOURSELF IN A SITUATION WHERE BOTH BETS HAVE A CHANCE TO WIN

follow bobby blue chips advice....put 300 to 350 on money line....odds are that if atlanta wins....they will cover.....thats a fact.
gaurantee yourself a an 800 or 900 win.

gluck, burgh.

thanks guys .........

took cincy +7.5

I hope you didn't misunderstand me. I would definitely take the moneyline play because it guarantees income.

I would take both the moneyline play AND the points.
