Teasers Kill Books!

BAGIANT · Feb 4, 2007

No matter which way you went your teasers were a winner! That sure must sting with all the books out there.

Yeah you are right..

Sides AND tOTALS..

Anyone who had the Colts as part of any teaser needs to have their head examined. No offense, but if you took the Colts as part of a teaser, you probably are not a winning gambler.

Why do you say this? Because the Bears only gave up 29 points easily could have been a lot more?

Teaser play was not that large....props a much bigger handle and bigger winner....overcome the teaser action easily....

I didn't have the Colts in a teaser, but that is the most incorrect post of the day

Maybe The Stupidest Post Of The Year!!!!!!!!!!

2nd'd.... after 5 Doors Down's comment on Dungy's son.

OK, since you guys are so confidant that my statement was wrong, why don't you go ahead and post what would be a wise teaser on the Colts, then I will go ahead and post my reasoning.

Anyone who knows what they're doing would not be able to come up with a good answer.

BAGIANT · Feb 5, 2007

Since you know what the possibilties of the Colts teasers are, feel free to comment. How could you make a comment like that?

Igetp2s · Feb 5, 2007

I only need 1 word to explain it. Moneyline.

A teaser on the Colts was a terrible bet because the ML would have been much better value.

propplayer · Feb 5, 2007

Man I am a slow typer.

But if the Colts lost that ML would suck. With teaser, you can Colts + points and you could have won some change.

BigAltheShoeman · Feb 5, 2007

I'm ASSUMING:
he is talking about the Colts -6.5

Any 6 point teaser would amount to the Colts on the ML

Colts would have to win either way.

Colts Even ML or in the teaser Colts - 1/2

not sure what the Colts ML was ?

what was the line ?

The worst you could do all wee was -250. The best I saw the majority of the week was at Tradesports, -227.

I think I saw Tradesports yesterday at around -220.

Matchbook also had around -230 most of the week.

I got Colts ML at -200.

I think that was the best line yesterday, but even the worst line I saw was better than the -240 line for a +100 6 pt teaser. So the ML and under parlay paid better.

I got the colts -210 (seen -200 after)
I agree with this post

wow the colts and a teaser = probability of not being a winning gambler. I guess i am one of the few that buck that trend.

please explain

if colts lose game then you lose -230 ml as opposed to -110 on teaser
