help me win my 2nd teaser ever

**tcaldwell** · 10-21-09, 02:04 PM

Tease Troy vs Noth Texas, spread then be Troy -11.5 its homecoming, and Troy plays extremely well at home, and they 90% cover straight up last 2 years at home.

ugh. troy gave me the worst backdoor ever last week. took a knee on their own 2 yard line with 4 sec left up 15. why not just take a safety? I had them -9.5 . they gave up a td on the last play

I really like IU if you add 6 to that spread. also, i feel oklahoma teased down to practically straight up is a really solid play. I have that exact tease with the 2 you have plus Ok.

sorry, i asked for help but then i went ahead and fired:

301 (NCAA FB) Tulsa PS -2
313 (NCAA FB) Georgia Tech PS +½
423 (NFL) New England Patriots Over 39
431 (NFL) New Orleans Saints Over 41
Total for this Ticket: Risk: 250 Win: 750

if the teaser is alive by sunday morning, I will consider hedging

**TheBetBuysDanK** · 10-21-09, 02:20 PM

Solid tease. I'm betting youll be live, and i'd do some minor hedging, but i like those picks, so not TOO much. best of luck!

Just think the pats and bucs will put a show on for the crowd in london. game has new england scoring 30+ themselves written all over it.

and i dont think scoring will be a problem in the saints-fins game

With 6 points to work with take your pick between atlanta +10 and vikings +10, if you can push.

**Husker36** · 10-21-09, 03:08 PM

Take Oklahoma St! They will win by 14+

**hillardoh** · 10-21-09, 03:14 PM

just add the colts over rams

**FishFace5** · 10-21-09, 03:17 PM

In the future, never tease through the 0. Your just wastin points. Line movement on GT makes this a non issue but when it was at 4, it woulda made more sense to find a different team

While this may seem to waste points but if you tease or buy enough points you turn a favorite into a underdog. totally changes the out come of the game.

why? now GT just has to win the game. I don't like laying 5.5 points but I will do that as well. I get what you are saying, but stating "never do this" is often flat out wrong in gambling. I don't think teasing a team from 5.5 to 0, or "teasing thru the 0" as you call it, is as much of a faux pas as you say. Sure, I would have rather done it earlier and gotten GT +2, but that's getting kinda nitty.

Sorry for not being clear. Look up "wong teaser". You will get a much better explanation than i can give you. The tease makes more sense with the spread at 5.5 than it did when the spread was at 4 is what i was saying

**IanKnapp** · 10-22-09, 11:18 AM

teasing favored team that are 3-6 point favorites isnt a good idea... teasing through zero isnt good unless your working with say a 3 point favorite and your using 10.5 point 3 team. then you get your favorite + a touch.

**** tulsa for blowing this
