    Not sure if your familiar with teaser, but ive got a few mins so Ill give you a quick run-thru .

    Typically : 6, 6.5, and 7 Point teasers (between 2-6 games)

    This example I have a 2 Team (or basically 2 picks, can be a side to win plus a total) teaser. I Chose the bombers at + 12 (Line was originally +5.5 . The 6.5 point teaser adds 6.5 point to both sides and the totals.

    So with a 6.5 Pt teaser you can either choose :

    BC LIONS (Originally -5.5) Now become + 1

    Bombs (originally +5.5) Now become +12 .

    The totals (orignally O/U 49) Now  become O 42.5 U 55.5
    (Total moves down 6.5 for the over and up for the under)

    Now remember, a teaser requires you to make at least 2 picks . So, For instance tonight there is only 1 game so you have to pick a team and a total. THE BEAUTY OF TEASERS IS YOU GET THESE POINT ADJUSTMENTS AT THE SAME PAYOUTS AS THE ORIGINAL LINES BEFORE THE 6.5 POINT WERE ADDED!!

    Some books offer that if 1 outcome loses it is a push and your moneys back. MOST books offer that you MUST WIN BOTH for your bet to BE PAID. IF NOT 1 LOSS IS A LOSS

    These teasers are nice because you can adjust the spread. They DO NOT pay out as if a parlay would, because they gave u the advatage of adding points.


    Any questions feel free to ask .
    Best of luck
