    Teases Are Sucker Bets

    Not as easy as they look, I bet them though for action and also because they look good before games start. They actually seem automatic but in reality one game always fuks it up.

    Bet teasers with care

    I agree with Sam...

    I think betting college teasers is, by and large, - EV.

    In the NFL, where the totals are lower, I've had good success with 6pt. teasers...

    I agree with you and don't do teasers anymore.
    But have you ever heard of this notion for a two team teaser.

    Tease any dog from +1.5 to +2.5, and a home favorite of -7.5 to -8.5
    I've heard historically they have won more than 75% of the time when teased with 6 points.

    Any validity to this? I may keep track of this during NFL season.

    I always set a couple of bucks aside for a pleaser.

    2-teams, 25 bucks-----just for the giggles of it.

    This week I had ND from -14.5 to -20.5 (WON)
    And I took Western Michigan +13 to +7....(CRASH AND BURN).

    They are fun though.

    Did you not read my previous post??

    I've made thousands with these over my 25 year career.

    In the past, they were even better because of the rules and the odds.......still beatable though.

    Wong NFL Teasers only, as described by Fishhead.

    All other teasers are virtually a waste.

    I did read it, I guess I was asking more for an actual winning percentage.
    But you said the magic words I've made thousands. I'll take that and run with it. Thanks Fish.

    teasers are great when used with care, best used with road teams giving 4.5-8.5 points

    i love teasers on games like pitt vs titans on thursday. -6 pitt, take that down to a pk. i like the titans this year but the steelers defense might be better this year than last! most of you guys hit it on the head. i think that college football is too unpredictable.

    NFL 6 point teasers are by far the best. Seattle -2.5 and Colts -1 book it!

    JJ. You might be right. In fact I know you are. But I just put 1/5 of my bankroll (last night) on a 3 team 6 pointer.

    TCU (at UVA) -5.5
    UGA (home vs USC) -1.5
    DAL (at TAM) pk


    I love this bet. It's +180 so you know it must be a lock.

    I'm new to teasers and had heard/read in the past that teasers were a suckers/squares bet.
    If a two team teaser pays +100 and (in general) have a 56% odds of hitting then wouldn't that make playing 2 team teasers a bankroll builder in the long run?

    What is the consensus about using Wong teasers in CFB? Is it +EV with a good price? I can get 1:1 for 2 team/6pt, and 9:5 for 3 team/6pt, but only with CFB. With NFL, the prices are 10:11, and 8:5

    Idk about online rules but a tie in a teaser means no action money back, lets say you got a 2 team tease and the firs team loses and the second ties you can still get the money back on your ticket, maybe online rules different but I have done that in a real book before.

    Precisely why books are either getting away from "Wongable" spreads or are no longer paying +100 on two-team six-pointers.
