    Books get smashed on teasers this weekend...

    If you played all the BS teasers, plus favorites where you could take back the dog ML at more than +241, you teased:

    Baltimore -0.5
    Jax +8
    Oakland +8
    Detroit -0.5
    Dallas -1
    Atlanta -0.5 (you might have passed on this one if you bet in the last hour).

    6-0. Wise-guys inflicted a blood-bath on books with teasers this weekend. It's about time... teasers haven't done so well until this weekend.

    Heavy hitters really do teases?

    I've had very good success with teasers for 3 weeks in a row now


    best form of betting in the NFL in my opinion...you just gotta look for the matchups/teams that always win/play a close game in certain situations

    Of course! Well, BS teasers anyway. Should be in everyone's arsenal.

    I think the point of that thread was that BS teasers aren't as widely available as they used to be because of books having teaser-protection lines, and also some books have gone to -120 on two-team six-pointers.

    Money Lines were higher than -241, so tease was better.

    A lot of people have giants to close out teasers. Not quite +241 on eagles buy back but close. Books cleaned up yesterday.

    I don't think Giants ever hit -6.5, so they weren't teasable.

    if they are worried about people blindly betting BS teasers, they could relatively easily just change the odds for teasers involving those situations, just like they do with buying on/off key numbers

    Some books already have going to -120.

    I just looked at the place I work at numbers for today and Giants killed over 90% of teasers still open with the total or MNF tied in. Books cleaned up on Dallas, Giants and Packers not covering.

    By end of season books do win

    Grittier knows this

    Also you cannot bet big in teasers at most gambling halls anymore.

    Understandable, but only squares would tease a team at -6, so all that burned money was John Q Public money.

    Hey Grits, I'm curious, do teasers make up a decent amount of bets where you are? I'd be interested to know how volume of bets on them compares to spread/ml/total betting.

    So if one can get a -6.5 fav where the moneyline is GREATER THAN -241, then it is a +EV leg to tease that team 6 points then correct? Am I right when I say that? And then what does Justin mean by "buying back the dog at +241" or more....does that mean putting like a .5 unit on the dog ML to hedge each leg?

    I think it depends on the moneyline...

    Actually a lot of big players who consider themselves sharp had Gmen down to a pick.

    Parlay and teaser cards are the books best friend. They are the equivalent of penny slot machines. Heavy volume on the parlay and teaser cards. Board teasers are about 8-10% of counter volume for football.

    Books always clean up

    Just remember, any time a square wins a bet, that money is coming back to the book eventually

    So BS teaser does not mean "Bullshit teaser". What does it mean? lol I don't tease very often, if at all. But Justin got my attention when he said "take back the dog with +241 ML" - can anyone elaborate on this?

    BS = Basic Strategy = Any Teaser crossing the 3 and 7. What Justin is talking about with -6.5 favorites aren't BS Teasers, but they work if the price is right.

    I see. I thought crossing the 7 and 3 was known as a Wong teaser. Same thing?
