    CBB Teasers

    Need some help solving a CBB teasers dilemma I've been struggling with for some time. I'm trying to figure out the breakeven percentage for playing CBB teasers. For a 6pt and 7pt, want to know what percentage I need to hit so that they are better than playing the games straight up?

    Advice

    The best way to beat teasers is to stay away from them.
    There's great money in straight up games. Patience.

    B/E point? wouldn't you just take the price your book charges you and go from there? which means no one can answer your question because you are not giving the price.

    For the most part I agree with you for all sports. But if you can hit at a nice rate, I think there is a point where teasers become advantageous more so than just betting straight up. I'm just trying to figure out what that magic % is.

    Here's a chart to look at the % of bets you'd have to get right to break even or be profitable. I'd assume that this is pretty much universal but you never said the price for your 3 teamer.

    I agree with @Zombie Woof, much more $ is to be had with straight up.
