Teaser (Adjustable Bet) is a special type of sports betting that allows bettors to adjust the point spread or total score across multiple games to improve their chances of winning. This concept is mainly applied in American football and basketball betting.

Main Features of Teaser

1. Adjusting Point Spread and Total Score：

• Bettors can modify the point spread or total score, usually by several points. For example, if a game's point spread is -6, you can adjust it to -3, making it easier for the team to win.

2. Combined Betting：

• Teaser bets typically involve multiple games. All selected games must win at the adjusted point spread or total score for the bet to win.

• Usually, you need to choose at least two games to combine.

3. Odds Adjustment：

• The odds for teaser bets are generally lower than standard point spread bets because the adjusted point spread or total score is more favorable to the bettor.

• For instance, if you choose two games for a teaser, the adjusted point spread may reduce the odds to +100 or similar.

4. Flexibility：

• Teaser bets provide greater flexibility, allowing bettors to adjust the point spread or total score based on their analysis and strategy, which helps control risk.

Examples of Teaser Betting

Example 1:

• In a football game, if you favor a team with a point spread of -7, you can adjust it to -3 through a teaser bet, allowing you to win even if the team only wins by 4 points.

Example 2:

• In a basketball game with a total score line of 220 points, adjusting it to 215 points means you can win if the actual total score is 217 points.

Advantages of Teaser Bets

1. Reduced Risk:

• By adjusting the point spread or total score, teaser bets can lower the risk of losing since the adjusted numbers favor the bettor.

2. Increased Winning Chances：

• Adjusting the point spread or total score can enhance confidence, improving winning opportunities.

3. Added Enjoyment：

• The variety and strategy involved in teaser betting offer more fun and challenge for bettors.

Disadvantages of Teaser Bets

1. Lower Odds:

• Since the adjusted point spread or total score favors the bettor, teaser bets typically have lower odds, meaning potential returns are also reduced.

2. Complexity：

• Teaser betting involves multiple games and adjusted point spreads or total scores, which may be complicated for some bettors.

3. Need for Complete Success：

• All selected games must win at the adjusted point spread or total score for the teaser bet to be successful. If one fails, the entire bet is lost.

Summary

Teaser (Adjustable Bet) allows bettors to adjust the point spread or total score across multiple games to enhance winning chances. While this betting style can lower risks and offer more flexibility, bettors should carefully consider their strategies due to lower odds and the requirement for all selections to succeed.
