Pleaser (Increased Bet) is a special type of sports betting that allows bettors to make opposite adjustments to the point spread or total score of a game, increasing the risk and potential reward of the bet. In simple terms, Pleaser bets make standard point spreads or totals more challenging.
Main Features of Pleaser
Increase Point Spread and Total Score:
Bettors adjust the point spread or total score upwards. For example, if the point spread is -7, it can be increased to -10. This means the team must win by more points for the bet to be successful.
Combined Betting:
Pleaser bets usually involve multiple games. All selected games must win at the increased point spread or total score for the bet to win.
Bettors must choose two or more games to combine.
Higher Odds:
Since the increased point spread or total score is more difficult to achieve, Pleaser bets typically offer higher odds. This results in greater potential returns.
For example, choosing two games for a Pleaser bet may raise the odds to +300 or higher.
Increased Risk:
With tougher adjusted point spreads or totals, Pleaser bets carry higher risk. Bettors must accept more significant risks to achieve higher returns.
Examples of Pleaser Betting
Example 1: In a football game, if you pick a team with a point spread of -7, you can increase it to -10 through a Pleaser bet. The team must win by at least 10 points for your bet to succeed. If the team only wins by 8 points, your bet is lost.
Example 2: In a basketball game with a total score line of 220 points, you can increase it to 225 points with a Pleaser bet. The total score must exceed 225 points to win the bet. If the actual total is 223 points, your bet is lost.
Advantages of Pleaser Bets
High Odds:
Increasing the point spread or total score usually leads to higher odds, resulting in larger potential returns.
Increased Challenge:
Pleaser bets offer greater challenges and excitement for players who enjoy high-risk, high-reward betting.
Disadvantages of Pleaser Bets
Higher Risk:
Increasing the point spread or total score makes success more challenging, leading to greater risk.
Odds and Returns:
Although odds are higher, the increased difficulty reduces the chances of success, resulting in potential losses.
Complexity:
Pleaser betting involves multiple games and increased point spreads or totals, which may be complicated for some bettors.
Summary
Pleaser (Increased Bet) allows bettors to make reverse adjustments to the point spread or total score of a game, raising the difficulty and potential returns of the bet. While this betting style offers higher odds, the tougher adjusted spreads or totals require bettors to take on higher risks. Pleaser bets are suitable for those willing to accept high risks in pursuit of high rewards.
