Teaser Bet PayoutsĪs mentioned earlier the payouts for teaser bets are preset depending on the number of outcomes you choose and the amount of points you are given in the teaser. An example of a 7 point NFL teaser would be taking the Chiefs at -6.5 when in reality they are -13.5 favorites. For example, if the Detroit Pistons were +5 point underdogs then you would take them at +10 on a 5 point NBA teaser (spread shifted from 5 points to 10 points). In a 5 point NBA teaser the spread for every outcome would be shifted by 5 points in your favor. In football you can generally find 6, 6.5, 7 or 7.5 point teasers, while in basketball the typical teasers are 4.5, 5, 5.5 or 6 point teasers. With teasers the spread is moved in your favor by a certain number of points on each game that you select and the payout is a set amount depending on the amount of points you are given on each play and the number of outcomes you select. In that sense teasers are similar to parlay bets, but there is one crucial difference. What Is A Teaser Bet?Ī teaser bet involves wagering on 2 or more games as one large wager.
