    you saw him thinking about the dunk, should I do it or not? He decided to. Unfortunate for anyone taking Syracuse. Unbelievable.

    tough loss for the cuse backers. They played great but just had nothing left they only play 6/7 guys we play 10. I hit a nice 2nd half parlay -6.5 and under. Lets cash texas now.

    That hotdoggin' dunk was an $800 swing for me - bought cuse to +10.5 for two bills and 'cuse +9.5 was the third team in a $75 3team parlay.

    man I am the same way. Seems everyday I watch games at the gym this @$#@@$ shtt happens to me so I cant scream out loud although I do make random comments which are quite funny. Un @#$#$ believeable. 50-52 with 1:40 I am like oh heck yeah this cover is safe big time. Then the Cuse decided, hey we have money on Louisville as well, lets freaking throw the game and shoot wild 3 point shots for fun and miss horribly.

    Couldn't agree more on buying pts, the spreads always burn me. The money looks good betting on the spreads they seem to always be the knife in my back.

    I do 4 point teasers a lot...I have had success before buying 3 points on 4 or 5 team parlays but Betjam doesn't allow it so a 4 point teaser is the next best thing.

    Go to your book and look for teaser play. If you follow westsidepete he does it really good. Like this

    Bought 7 pts bet 100 to win 90 3 team parlay

    Hoyas +1
    Orangemen +17
    RI +7

    teasers come thru big time for me....you can pick various one's ...I like a 3 team 7pt teaser...100 will win you 83...if you look at my thread you'll see how they're doing today...I also like 5 pt teasers because once you pick 3 teams you're winning plus money not chalk...three 5pt tease teams on 100 pays 140...

    so I am assuming 3 team 7 point teaser you can choose whatever you wnat to use 7 total points between the 3 teams? can you do something like 4 3 0 or does it have to be like 3 2 2 etc?

    no, it changes the line or total by 7 pts for each game. Meaning: could have gotten cuse at +17.5 or Louisville at -3.5

    Basically a parlay where the points are bought automatically for you...4 point teaser = 4 points in favor of both sides of the spread or the total.

    Go check your bets from tonight and then add 7 pts. I bet you would have won some that you lost do to the shit that just happened in the orangemen/Lou game. Something happened to me in the RI game but I bought 7 pts and with that 7pts I won.....

    exactly...it helps a lot on games like this one today...for instance Syracuse worst loss of the year was by 14 pts...so getting +17 was easy...but on 7 pt teases you lose on a push..so I really had +16 on this one...I like to wait to get an extra 1/2 pt sometimes before pulling the trigger....for instance San Diego was +8 tonite...got to +7.5 and didn't want to wait to see if it went to 7...did the tease at +7.5 and have it at +14.5 for tonight...cashes 2 plays for me if this comes thru...the line currently is 6.5...so you have to get a feel for how the line is going...

    I think that a 3 team 5 point teaser pays +money and you can go up to 15 teams where as the 7 point teaser pays - money and you are limited to 3 teams.

    no I get it just not sure if I am doing it right....haha.

    I mean I had this one where Zags only had to win by -2.5 and the over only had to be like 125 instead of 132 that is nuts...sounds way too easy to make money. What am I missing?

    add more teams or lower the pts on the tease...on a 5 pt tease pick 3 teams...100 pays 140

    The spreads are going to pay alot more. You look for teams your sure are going to win or lose but not by the spreads. Like you thought the orangemen where not going to lose by +10 then you buy 7 making it +17.....

    It can be a great moneymaker. I personally use teasers more in the NFL than ncaab. One caveat is that if one of the teams pushes the entire bet is a loss. That one has burned me more than once
