Wong teasers lost appeal?

Relatively new to teasers,EV, etc...Read where one was postulating they..Wong.. had lost their appeal, roi.  I would certainly think crossing through key numbers is helpful...esp for RDs and HFs.  Any thoughts? 

As I have teased TB, KC and Sea. One game has killed my last two. Is one,in essence, significantly lowering their probability of a W going from two teams to three? I am inclined to think so....for consistent results. Thx.

football teasers have been $$ lately, but you have to be selective.  Last week I hit my first 7 teamer, Buf, Atl Un, NE Un, Pit Un, Bal, Tn Un, Tb Un.  

YES, I like unders, especially teased.....

Ind Un, Buff Un, NYG Un this week......

Congrats. 7 or 10 pts?  Yet....the long-term probability of hitting seven teamers is extremely low. 

Sea looking good inspite of high total. Just got pushed down off the 3 at Pinny. I like Russell getting 8.5 agst a beat up secondary.

Speculate 95% on here have no idea what a Wong teaser is.

yup stick to 2-team plays, adding that 3rd play lowers your win probability for sure

 In the early days you could bet the classic Wongs  1 1/2,  2 1/2, up and   8 1/2, 7 1/2 down at even money.   it was a gift from the gambling gods,  I made a fortune playing them in the 1970 and 1980s.  In the mid 90's bookmakers wised up and started making bettors lay -110,  I think that might still be a positive EV,  although much smaller but  another factor has come in the mix.  The average NFL total is much higher today. Obviously moving the line 6 points is has much more value in a game where the expected finals in is the low 40s,  than in the low 50s.  I do not believe in today's game betting the Wong teaser is a positive EV, although probably not any worse than the EV of straight bet on a game.

Here is another tip about six-point 2-team teasers,  in Las Vegas if either side of the Teaser pushes, it is no bet, not matter if the other side is a winner or a loser.  Tourist often throw a ticket away if the 1st team is a loser,  Sweepers look for those, and if they get a push in the 2nd game,  might be  a $500 or $1000 tip for them as they can cash it in as a no bet.

i don't usually do teasers, but put one in a few hours ago for tomorrow.

i got Denver +7, Saints -1, Titans/Jets UNDER 51 .......(+140)

I think the Denver game will be a close one, Saints get their first true home game and the Saints D is still very underrated imo, and i think Derrick Henry might get 30 carries tomorrow

Yep. Winning money on Wong teasers are a thing of the past. For various reason. And the biggest one ISN'T because the books raised the vig. Although that certainly didn't help.

Two is the best way to tease, if you do...time after time Id lose one team on a 3 team teaser...have hit many 2 teamers

Thx for all the responses. Data I read suggested sticking to road dogs and home favs too. Agreed? 

This one was a W. 3-1.  Switching to two teamers. Three and a half hrs for this game tonight was absurd. Losing me...

I won a Wong teaser last week on -7.5 Arizona at Jacksonville and -7.5 Baltimore at Detroit. Teased them both to -1.5.

Of course I needed Balt to convert a 4th and 19 as well as have the longest FG in NFL history bounce in off the cross bar from 66 yards, but a win is a win.

Think I may avoid road favs. Glad yours worked.

Wash +8.5. Cle +8.5

Why do a teaser when you can do an alt line parlay or round robin?  

You should go on YT and look up Gianni the Greeks rant on teasers.  In the long term for teasers to be profitable, you have to hit at least 70%.

3 teamers obvi pay out more money, but it decreases our profitable return % a shit ton long term.  We don't play to win everyday, play to win at a yearly %.  That mentality will help people from losing millions of dollars.

 IF u read my original post, I said I was new to teasers.  Hence what makes one think I would be experienced w your suggestions ?   I like the simple two teamers...fun and profitable so far. I focus my money making efforts on the commodity mkts
