    What you guys think of a 10 teamer 21 teaser

    Betonline has a 10 team 21 point teaser at 1.7 odds. I mean how can it really be to pick 5 NFL and 5 college teams with a +21 point added

    Last week in NCAAF, these teams would have lost had you used it on them:

    Michigan -36 (won by 4)
    Nebraska -2 (lost by 20)
    Texas -3 (lost by 21)
    South Florida -12.5 (lost by 18)
    Nicholls State +26 (lost by 63)
    Wagner +29 (lost by 54)

    3 of the 6 teams above probably got a lot of action due to their name.

    Ideally the book is looking for bettors to tease down large favorites(like Michigan last week) from say, -42 to -21 and hope that the dog puts up a good fight. Or for a bettor to tease a small road underdog and for them to get blown out of the water. Or for a bettor to tease one of those FCS underdogs getting between 17-28 points and hope they get demolished.

    There were 61 games on the NCAAF board last week, or 122 teams. 6 teams would have lost under this teaser, or 4.9%. If you had to pick 10 teams, that is 8.1% of possible teams to pick from. The book is betting on having more than 10 teams in this teaser lose. Last week since there were only 6 losers, the book probably didn't do well here.

    In the NFL... only the 49ers would have lost last week.

    1.7 odds looks pretty good.

    You could just pick 10 NFL Teams

    Hell you could pick 5 games and play both sides and have a decent shot to win this

    Exactly.... odds in NFL are way better than NCAA it looks like. I am surprised this is offered at plus money.

    Exactly, some games you can put both sides on the same Teaser. Like Raiders at +36 and Broncos at +6. I would never tease down a favorite in the NCAA though. Not many division 1 teams regularly get blown out by 50+ points, so I can see an advantage teasing up +24-30 college dogs.

    Just an air bet, but if I were to use it in 10 college games this weekend:

    Troy +35.5
    UL Monroe/Baylor Over 54
    Rice +24
    Michigan State +27.5
    Colorado State +61
    Alabama/Colorado State Over 30
    Rutgers +19
    LSU +4
    Florida State -19
    Nebraska PK

    It is actually a lot harder to find games you are comfortable with in this than you may think.

    Here's my plays. Raiders +36, Broncos +6, Ravens +22, Vikings +14, Steelers +23.5, CSU +60.5, UNT +53.5, FIU +64, UCONN +38.5, NewMexico State +63 They don't let you do the 21 pointers on the totals, that's why I'm not listing any.

    If you have a hard time picking dogs with a added 21 plus point, you should not be gambling period.

    can you take totals ? i mean 3 touchdowns in NFL and College is shit ton for a total.. i am sure i would loose a few.. but if i could throw totals i like into the mix man oh man.. also can you do open slots ? these teasers could be a ton of fun if you are willing to wait around and find plays everyday to chip away


    just noticed 5dimes offers a 20 pt teaser.. but if you pick 10 teams you are paying -240 and up depending on if you do the ties loose or reduce..

    ey? I assume he was talking decimal when he said 1.7, which is about -140.

    I'd also assume that a book offering you this won't let you tease both sides.

    edit: just had a look at the site. 10 teamer pays 17 to 10, NOT 1.7. This is -170. Much less attractive.
