What To Consider When Betting An NFL Teaser

The NFL is the world’s most popular league to wager upon. Whether you are making a straight or exotic wager, chances are, you’ve tried your luck on the NFL. Parlays and teasers are the two most popular exotic bets, and while they can bring you a lot of money, they also have a huge risk associated with them. Today, for your sports betting pleasure, we’ll be looking at things to consider, when making an NFL teaser.

A teaser essentially, is a parlay bet that allows you to use the point spread. However, because the sportsbook allows you to adjust the point spread to make your wager more winnable, you are paid less money. Teasers in the NFL, usually start at six points, and can go as high as 13 points. If you are a new bettor, we suggest, that you use the two-teamsix-point teaser, as it can help you turn a profit. As well, starting small and slowly building up the teams or points you add to your teaser, can help you long term, as you test what works and what doesn’t for your budget. What’s more, the more points or teams you add to your wager, the more juice you have to pay to the house, since they are giving you a huge advantage. For this reason, the bookie software odds are quite low on your bet working out. Here is an example of a two-team six-point wager.

The two teams you are taking, are the San Francisco 49ers and the Baltimore Ravens. The 49ers are two and a half point dogs to New Orleans, while Baltimore is an eight and a half point favorite against Houston. By using a six-point teaser, we could make the 49ers an eight and a half point underdog, while making Baltimore a two-point favorite. In order to cash in our ticket as an NFL teaser, both teams would need to win.
