Teasers in Sports Betting

By: Shweta Dubey - Nov -04 -2011

Teasers are some of the most important bets placed in the game of online sports betting in football and basketball. The best is quite similar to the betting parlays where all the teams that are selected are required to win for the bettor placing the bet and if it happens, then only he wins the wager. It means if he loses in any of the single bet, then he would lose the entire game.

However, there is a significant difference between the parlays and the teasers and the difference is that the bettor is permitted towards moving the point spread in any particular direction they like to move and in any direction as well. For example, if the 10 points favor Bears in comparison to the Dolphins, the bettors of the teasers get the option of moving the point spread in any of their favored direction and they are also allowed to make the new point spread for the teasers bet, the Dolphins 16 and the Bears 4.

In the football teasers, bettors are allowed to move the line 6, 6.5, 7 or sometimes up to 10 points, but the payoffs will be lesser for every additional half point taken by the bettor. Lower odds will be paid by the 7 point teaser than a 6 point teaser. On the other hand, in the case of the basketball teasers, the movement of the point spread can be 4, 4.5, 5 points. The minimum number of teasers must be on two teams and the bettors are allowed to use up to a max of 10 teams. The wager is placed depending upon the sports book; however, the placement of maximum number of wager tend to limit up to 6.

At most sports books, the ties are counted as a loss; whereas, some sports books reduce the number of teams in the teaser by a single unit. Hence, it should be checked with the individual sports books before placing the bets to make sure that you know about the rules perfectly.

Teasers are one of the easiest bet to get it calculated its value and then further finding the opportunity of wagering. Even if you are not having any experience with the math of sports betting and even if you have not heard about the teaser earlier before, you can still go through the teasers in online sports betting for earning more and more money online. However, the best thing here is to understand the rules and procedures of teasers and their importance in the sports betting world. The next step should be to understand and implement the strategy to learn about the things and get success in the sports betting industry to the best.

However, the debate is still going on among the experienced sports bettors if the wagering in teasers is good or not. Opinions differ from person to person. Some believe that they are the sucker bets played strictly; on the other hand, some find them profitable too.
