    Just playing with teaser.

    New to betting teaser usually just bet spreads. Would love thoughts

    North Carolina +18
    USC -16
    Temple +36
    Toledo +30
    Boise +9 1/2
    FSU -4

    20 to win 120

    Save your money and play select/sparingly NFL teasers only.

    Never bet teasers in college. Nfl teasers can be profitable if you're selective and you consistently play games that tease thru 3 and 7 key numbers.

    They are insanely unpredictable.

    There always seems to be one game that just tortures you. You may win 5 walking away-- and then somehow that 6th game will crush you.

    There's too much variance in cfb. You see 7 pt favs lose by 10 and 3 pt dogs lose by 20. The lines are much tighter in the nfl ie more often than not the final score falls very closely to the spread so you can capitalize by teasing the number.

    Stick to spreads/money lines/totals and do teasers and parlays for fun/ small money only. Good luck

    Teasers are best for the NFL because the lines are so sharp. In college some of the lines are way off and if you happen to be on the wrong side you're screwed. Like Renegades said if you can tease NFL lines to 3 or 7 preferably 3.5 or 7.5 you're gonna be successful

    I respectfully disagree with my fellow SBR posters...I've done teasers in college football for years with plenty of success...It's all about picking the right side...yes, in the NFL it's a tad easier because most pro teams play each other close to the vest...Even so, if you pick the right games or side in college football, those 7 points can make all the difference in the world and the basically the difference between winning and losing!...to the OP, good luck with your card, brah!........here's my teaser card for this weekend's action!

    Ticket # Accepted Type Risk To Win Short Description
    8/26/2013 10:50AM Teaser 50.00 200.00 Football - 133 North Carolina +18½ for Game
    Football - 137 Tulsa +10½ for Game
    Football - 141 Utah State +9½ for Game
    Football - 145 Rutgers +16½ for Game
    Football - 169 BYU +7½ for Game
    Football - 208 TCU +11 for Game

    NFL lines are sharp...lol. Plenty of those games are off too, the parity is just a lot less than in college. CFB teasers still can be won just as easily if you know what you are looking for.

    Got to criticize on the Boise +9.5. Why leave it to chance that a 10 point loss would happen?
