neither. I like to win money

If you can pick winners....you will win way more with parlays than you ever would with straight bets.

If you cant pick winners.....you will lose way more playing parlays than you would playing straight bets.

That is the simple answer and based solely one mathematics.

The NFL is the easiest to play parlays and teasers because of the article above. The other reason is there are key numbers. Moving your line across key numbers is a huge advantage (3,4,7 being the most important). Last week I went into Sunday with large plays on Chicago plus 7.5 and Atlanta on the moneyline and hit both sides. This week I will do the same thing.

There are not key numbers in basketball. There are some key numbers in baseball totals but not as helpful. The dumbest bet I have seen people make is buying a point in the NBA. Are you kidding me.......like playing over 212.5 is more important than 213.5 ......then they are pumping their chests after they win and it lands on 213.

If you win a teaser most likely the teams covered the original spread as well.

Since I hit my 2 team teaser on Sat. posted right here in this thread I will try another.

Balt Ravens - .5
Carolina Panthers +.5

Reasoning is Browns are terrible although they do tend to play Balt tough.
Carolina needs to make up for last years debacle so they have motivation.

Very simplistic reasoning but whatever works.

Teasers are mostly only good bets on certain NFL sides. Parlays are good bets any time it would be a good straight bet. Sometimes even better as a parlay than a straight bet because of correlations, lower juice, not moving the line, or getting around limits.

I'll play a teaser every now and then. My two favorites to play are a 2 team 6 point teaser (pays even money where I play) and the 3 team 10 point teaser for -120 but has to be college and can only be bet as a 3 teamer.

Where!?!? 6 point teaser at even!!

If regular bets are called straight bets can we call teasers and parlays gay bets?
