Sportsbook Betting Tips: Understanding the Teasers
There are numerous types of bets involved in sportsbook betting, and Teasers are amongst the popular forms of wagers online. These types of bets are offered in football and basketball betting. Teaser bets are more or less like parlays, given that all the teams selected by the bettor have to win for making the bet a winner. If even one of the all teams selected happens to lose the game then the whole bet is considered a losing one.
Teasers differ from parlay bets slightly; unlike parlays the bettor can move the point spread in any direction that he wants on a specific game in teaser bet. For instance is Team A is favored by 10 points over Team B, then when placing a teaser bet one can move the point spread in any direction, as in make the new point spreads for Team A –4 or for the Team B +16.
In NFL betting, you can move the point spreads to 6, 6.5, 7, or sometimes even 10 points, however, the payoffs decreases with each additional half point taken by you. The lines for MLB betting can be moved to 4, 4.5, or 5 points. A teaser bet should have at least two teams and the maximum number depends on the sportsbook; it may even go up to 10 teams at some sports betting websites while some may limit it to six teams only.
