what do you plan on doing now...im thinking that i may as well just go for the $1000 still or is there a way to hedge that is still pretty profitable?

Nope, might as well kill yourself now.

I'm just letting it ride...and happy that my mom decided to have 1100 transferred into her neteller account to put on the game at the 0 point spread. although, if the deposit error hadn't happened, she could have gotten on at pitt +1.

You simply pray for Pitt at this point in time

How does this work? Tell me more.

Has anyone thought of laying the steelers at betfair? How does that look?

I've been looking at Betfair but have no clue how to make the right bet. I don't really have the BR left anyway unless I dip into my savings account, so I'll let it ride and twiddle my thumbs until I get my $1100 back so I can continue poker.

Can someone please explain the hedgebet at halftime?
I was going to just pray for pittsburgh to win this, but if there's a better alternative I'd like to know more.

Basically say PITT are up by a touchdown at halftime, the line might now by PITT -7 -110 or whatever, i'm no sports bettor. So now because the situation has changed you can get MIA + 7 , giving you a genuine hedge and also a middle opportunity to win both sides if pittsburg win by 6 etc. Of course if MIA are winning at half time there will be no hedge.
