What, in your opinion, is the best way to use teasers (apart from not using them at all).

I use Olympic, and have gone through the math of the different payouts for the various spreads adjustments possible, and the various numbers of games per ticket, but cant seem to conclusively decide where the best value lies. I have unfortunately discovered, that basketball teasers dont work so well for me, but football seems to be a better value.

Im looking for a answers to the following:

How many games do you usually use on a teaser?
Do you pick multiple games and do some sort of combination of them all (eg 3 of 5 resulting in 10 tickets)?
Do you use a "hookup" game if you use a rotation?
Do you use straight teasers, or is it worth the extra money to add an even greater spread?
If so, by how much?

Thanks for any insight.

Read Wong's Book. Make the money. Invite your girlfriend over. Celebrate by the fire, with some champagne.

Start the fire with kindling provided by the Logical Approach TeaserReport, as this work still thinks the key concept to teasers is finding teams with histrorically strong teaser records (a theory that has little to no predictive value).

Teaser Strategy

Right after the lines open take the over and favorite for all games with an over/under of 37 or less. It's been a tough season for me but this strategy has kept me even. Here's my thinking...in a low o/u game points are more valuable than points in non-low o/u games. Using an extreme example to make a point...what would you rather do tease a game 6 pts that has an o/u of 80 where almost 3 TDs are scored every quarter...or would you rather (FOR THE SAME PRICE) tease an o/u of 28 where there's on avg only 1 TD per QTR.

In the second case 6 points are 3 times more valuable than in the 1st example! Whether you tease the o/u or the side...you get a ton of value.
