Books get smashed on teasers this weekend...

[Justin7]

If you played all the BS teasers, plus favorites where you could take back the dog ML at more than +241, you teased:

Baltimore -0.5
Jax +8
Oakland +8
Detroit -0.5
Dallas -1
Atlanta -0.5 (you might have passed on this one if you bet in the last hour).

6-0. Wise-guys inflicted a blood-bath on books with teasers this weekend. It's about time... teasers haven't done so well until this weekend.

[No coincidences]

Heavy hitters really do teases?

[brahmabull117]

I've had very good success with teasers for 3 weeks in a row now


best form of betting in the NFL in my opinion...you just gotta look for the matchups/teams that always win/play a close game in certain situations

Of course! Well, BS teasers anyway. Should be in everyone's arsenal.

[Masu485]

funny because there was just a thread made this week about how BS and wong teasers are dead.

I think the point of that thread was that BS teasers aren't as widely available as they used to be because of books having teaser-protection lines, and also some books have gone to -120 on two-team six-pointers.

[jolmscheid]

The only real BS teasers were jax and oak though .. correct? How did you come up with the others?

[nosniboR11]

so justin you saying you a wise guy?

Money Lines were higher than -241, so tease was better.

[ttwarrior1]

not me, i choose a couple wrong teams, o well

A lot of people have giants to close out teasers. Not quite +241 on eagles buy back but close. Books cleaned up yesterday.

[rm18]

I booked Buffalo and Green Bay as teaser teams today though and not those games

An edge is an edge.

I don't think Giants ever hit -6.5, so they weren't teasable.

[CarpeDime]

if they are worried about people blindly betting BS teasers, they could relatively easily just change the odds for teasers involving those situations, just like they do with buying on/off key numbers

Some books already have going to -120.

[jjgold]

wise guys do not play many teasers
wise guys bet both sides to a game

[Grits n' Gravy]

I just looked at the place I work at numbers for today and Giants killed over 90% of teasers still open with the total or MNF tied in. Books cleaned up on Dallas, Giants and Packers not covering.

[jjgold]

By end of season books do win

Grittier knows this

Also you cannot bet big in teasers at most gambling halls anymore.

Understandable, but only squares would tease a team at -6, so all that burned money was John Q Public money.

Hey Grits, I'm curious, do teasers make up a decent amount of bets where you are? I'd be interested to know how volume of bets on them compares to spread/ml/total betting.

[jolmscheid]

Money Lines were higher than -241, so tease was better.

So if one can get a -6.5 fav where the moneyline is GREATER THAN -241, then it is a +EV leg to tease that team 6 points then correct? Am I right when I say that? And then what does Justin mean by "buying back the dog at +241" or more....does that mean putting like a .5 unit on the dog ML to hedge each leg?

[Justin7]

I think it depends on the moneyline...

[Goat Milk]

books cleaned up on saturday so who cares

[Grits n' Gravy]

Actually a lot of big players who consider themselves sharp had Gmen down to a pick.

Parlay and teaser cards are the books best friend. They are the equivalent of penny slot machines. Heavy volume on the parlay and teaser cards. Board teasers are about 8-10% of counter volume for football.

[big0mar]

Books always clean up

Just remember, any time a square wins a bet, that money is coming back to the book eventually

[HauntingTheHoly]

So BS teaser does not mean "Bullshit teaser". What does it mean? lol I don't tease very often, if at all. But Justin got my attention when he said "take back the dog with +241 ML" - can anyone elaborate on this?

Even going through the non-existent -0.5?

[vyomguy]

plenty of opportunities next week as well.

BS = Basic Strategy = Any Teaser crossing the 3 and 7. What Justin is talking about with -6.5 favorites aren't BS Teasers, but they work if the price is right.

it was a great week

finally

I see. I thought crossing the 7 and 3 was known as a Wong teaser. Same thing?

Yes.
