Predict Cup is down to the last day, and I was browsing the community this morning and came across an interesting hedging strategy.
Basically, prepare a few new accounts and pick those underdog teams with fewer fans in the weak groups (currently, groups H, J, and G seem suitable).
Then, Account A bets 'yes' across all markets like Win/Draw/Loss, Half-Time, Total Goals, Spread, and Both Teams to Score, while Account B bets 'no' across the board, and Account C focuses on backing the Draw.
In the worst-case scenario, we’ll probably see a few more draws, with Account C potentially raking in around 500 points, and also snagging a share of the second-place prize pool (since no one is picking the weak teams, competition is low).
Ideally, I’m aiming to hit around 2400 points. I've already locked some positions on a few underdogs, and on this final day, I’m planning to spread out a few more accounts to test this strategy and cover more possible outcomes.
The wear and tear should be kept under a few bucks, and the risk isn’t too high. This kind of play is actually leveraging the fact that everyone is gravitating towards strong teams, positioning ourselves in the underdog groups. Points don’t have to be the highest; as long as we can break into the top two of the group, we have a shot at sharing the prize.
