Why Does One Bet Always Lose In A Teaser?

RageWizard · 10-03-09, 01:46 PM

That's why they call it a teaser. It is a total succkers bet, but people still take them anyway.

2-teamers can work, but everything else is much higher risk. Odds do not run in your favor.

Nicky Santoro · 10-03-09, 02:33 PM

cause there are way way more combinations of going 2 for 3 than going 1 for 3, 0 for 3, or 3 for 3..

Just as hard to go 0-3 as 3-0

SlickFazzer · 10-03-09, 02:45 PM

they never fukkin work.

Hotdiggity11 · 10-03-09, 02:49 PM

They are called TEASErs for a reason.

moses millsap · 10-03-09, 03:11 PM

3 teamers are the best option of the lot at +180

Justin7 · 10-03-09, 03:12 PM

JJ,

You gotta quit teasing totals. You're killing me!

NO

not for teasers.. for parlays YES, but not teasers.. you have about a 70% chance at winning each game in a teaser, not 50% like a parlay.. so much easier to go 3-0 than 0-3.

I should play more teasers, Almost every "L" I've chalked this year in the NFL and NCAA because of a blown kick at some point in time, or not kicking it and going for it and not getting it.

nobs · 10-03-09, 06:39 PM

JJGOLD,

I have a guaranteed teaser WINNER. It is a 4 team 13 point NFL teaser. My book payoffs plus charges -120. Most books charges -130.

I guarantee you this teaser is GOLD like your last name. I will bet you 100 of my points for 33 of your points on this teaser. That is over -300.

If one play loses, you win my 100 points.

Do you accept this wager ?

nobs · 10-03-09, 06:40 PM

my teaser

OAKLAND + 22
Tennessee + 10
Dallas +10
Green Bay ( MNF) + 17

Ties lose. There are some tie number, if I tie you win.

I risk 100 points to win 33.

Yes or No

pavyracer · 10-03-09, 08:38 PM

Because it is in the rules.

twentyonekid · 10-03-09, 08:45 PM

rule of thumb is,you should never bet teasers in college,only in the nfl,also the only parlays i make are money line parlays,i don't trust parlays using points....i believe all parlays are sucker bets excluding the money line ones...jmo

Good job Black

Nicky this kid is confident, I am worried now he is a shark and i fell for it.

Nicky Santoro · 10-04-09, 05:19 PM

easiest 100 pts you'll ever make in your life.. and you got 3-1.. wow.. i would have taken +140, let alone +300..

maybe nobber will try to win it back with you by offering you the devils next game and giving you +4.5 goals

jjgold · 10-04-09, 05:54 PM

Nicky I will give the kid another chance

G's pks · 10-04-09, 06:02 PM

jj look at my pick (3 team 10 point teaser) above avatar...pick good teams...

Nicky Santoro · 10-04-09, 06:06 PM

omg, i just realized this kid has only 86 posts..lol

good luck seeing your pts.. you might see it cause he still has over 200 pts.. but if he had like 32 pts left, NO WAY he works off his next 78 pts to pay you off.. NO WAY.. you would have never seen it.. he would have just created a new handle and stiffed you.. this nobber guy is probably 16-20 yrs old..

will you get your 100 pts?

YES -120
NO even

___

If he only had 32 pts left, would you have eventually seen the 100 pts?

NO -2300
YES +1600

jjgold · 10-04-09, 06:30 PM

Nicky I might play the No here for $200

pavyracer · 10-04-09, 06:48 PM

What's the payout at -2300 for a $200 bet?

20Four7 · 10-04-09, 06:50 PM

All 4 of my teasers come through today JJ what are you talking about? I hit a 4 and 5 gamer last weekend. One bet doesn't always lose.

bettman · 10-05-09, 01:22 AM

im starting to like 10pt teasers
