    parley or teaser?
    Suppose I like Washington to beat Philly if it's a low scoring game. My sportsbook has Redskins +2 (-105) and total at 47. Would it be smarter to play Redskins and under as a parley (1 unit to win 2.73) or as a 6 pt teaser (Skins +8, u53) at -110?

    You wont be allowed to play this as a parlay.

      Given your assumptions, parlay >>>>> teaser.

      Previous post is silly pants.

        Parlay. Teasing a high total is horrible.

          Underdog and the under is a correlated play and no good book (one that will pay you) is going to allow you correlated plays...do your homework first ricky before you try to piss someone

            Call82 is incorrect as the degree of correlation of betting Washington to the under is quite small and just about every book would allow you to parlay those 2 propositions.

            In the NFL, almost all books will allow you to parlay a side and the total within the same game as long as its a Pre-Game wager on the regular spreads (books won't let you parlay an adjusted spread to an adjusted total for obvious reasons).

              Every book in the world accepted this parlay, I think the minimum ratio for correlation between spread/total is 1/3 before book considers parlay correlated.
