Sports Betting Teasers
A teaser is a type of parlay that allows bettors to adjust the point spread or totals line in their favor for multiple games. It involves combining two or more bets within the same teaser.
When placing a teaser, the bettor can adjust the point spread or totals line in their favor by a certain number of points for each game in the teaser. This adjustment is known as "teasing" the lines.
Teasers are particularly popular in football and basketball betting. In football, a typical teaser might allow bettors to adjust the point spread by 6, 6.5, or 7 points, while in basketball, it could be 4, 4.5, or 5 points.
The advantage of teasers is that they offer a higher likelihood of winning compared to traditional parlays, as the adjusted lines make it easier for the selected teams to cover or for the game to go over the teased total. However, the reduced risk comes with lower odds and payouts compared to regular parlays.
Teasers are a great option for bettors who want to reduce risk and increase their chances of winning multiple bets while still enjoying the excitement of parlays.
