Yes, you'll see a lot of those situations.
Most will tell you teasers are sucker plays except for football Wong's, which have become tougher to play.
You'll see value vs. teasers often by parlaying ML fav's where the tease would have brought you close to a pick'em.
That's where you have to do a little time working the numbers, cause if the ML gets overinflated, (where the spread is not moving with same proportion), the tease to both teams - 1/2 may be more profitable.
You need to hit a 7 team parlay to be paid about 10-1. (risking $20 to win $201).
If you didn't buy the points, you would only have to win a 4 team parlay to get paid the same.
Actually risking $17 will pay $208. (12-1).
If you do it for the 'action' and like to see a big payout, use your $20 to play four separate $5 five team parlays that will pay $121 each.
Or play two $8 five teamers that will pay $195 each, and you may win both!
Which way gives you the best shot AND gives you the feeling of action, yours or mine?
Also with yours, if you lose an early game the whole ticket is shot, with mine you can stagger the action and enjoy the whole day before your world comes crashing down on you! :-)
