celticGreen's NFL Season Featuring Wong Teasers

[celticGreen+]

Going to try to post for an entire NFL season here and see if we can win some $$. I'm going to bet & track Wong Teasers (inspired by some older 2p2 threads by Daliman) this season, in addition to my regular picks. My plan is to keep records that clearly illustrate which bets are doing well, be it the teasers or my straight bets.

As far as the teasers go...

I will bet 4% of my bankroll on 2 team teasers
I will bet 2% of my bankroll on 3 team teasers

Starting bankroll is $2400.

As an example, if the lines that are available now were to be the same come Sunday, I would be looking at a card of:

4% of $2400 ($96 @ -110) on each of the following:
-Seahawks -2.5 / Colts -1
-Seahawks -2.5 / Panthers +8
-Colts -1 / Panthers +8

2% of $2400 ($48 @ +180) on the following 3 team teaser:
-Seahawks -2.5 / Colts -1 / Panthers +8

I'm using lines from bodog.com as they are the lines my local uses most of the time.

I'll be recording results using this table:

<table cellspacing=0 cellpadding=1 border=1><tr><th> </th><th>W-L</th><th>Units +/-</th></tr><tr><th>Teasers</th><td>0-0</td><td>0.0</td></tr><tr><th>Other Bets</th><td>0-0</td><td>0.0</td></tr><tr><th>Totals</th><td>0-0</td><td>0.0</td></tr></table>

good luck everyone!

Wong Teaser???

What is a Wong Teaser?

What is a Wong Teaser?

You know, a simple Google search of "Wong teaser" gets you your answer in 15 seconds.



But since that's above you, it's basically trying to play teasers with the strategy of finding lines where you can tease through key scoring numbers - 3, and 7.

Thanks ds123 for fielding that - and ya, Google can answer your question more fully than you can imagine. If you're interested in Wong teasers, I would read the following, as it's a condensed version of the threads that got me interested in playing them. The original threads are a few years old now, but this FAQ sums it all up nicely:

In addition, upon reading the FAQ you may notice that Colts -7 is not a strict Wong teaser, however as the year progresses I am going to bet certain games that are on the 7 and 3.

To start off the season...

Pittsburgh -6.5 ($55 to win $50)
Over 35.5 ($110 to win $100)

Houston -5 ($110 to win $100)

Better than Thursday as far as my picks go (2-1, +$40 for the day), however the first teaser of the year goes down in flames /w Carolina screwing the pooch.

<table cellspacing=0 cellpadding=1 border=1><tr><th> </th><th>W-L</th><th>Units +/-</th></tr><tr><th>Teasers</th><td>0-1</td><td>-$110.00</td></tr><tr><th>Other Bets</th><td>2-3</td><td>-$125.00</td></tr><tr><th>Totals</th><td>2-4</td><td>-$235.00</td></tr></table>

Not a Wong, but a Teaser nonetheless for Monday night:

San Diego -4.5 / New England -5.5 ($110 to win $100)

Seattle +8.5 / Oakland +7.5 ($110 to win $100)
Indianapolis +8.5 / Seattle +8.5 ($110 to win $100)

 

[celticGreen+]

Houston -4 ($220 to win $200)
New York Football Jets -2 ($220 to win $200)
Detroit +6.5 ($110 to win $100)

 

[celticGreen+]

Going to forego the Wong Teaser's from here on out, as the idea of losing in anticipation of a big payoff doesn't sound profitable to me. Still will be playing my own picks where I'm 7-7 and -$25.00. Be back on Sunday.

 

[celticGreen+]

Reviving the thread, finally have a Sunday off... My picks are 7-7 for -$25.00 this year. But down an additional -$440 due to playing early Wong's. Either way, here's the card for today:

Atlanta -9 ($220 to win $200)
Houston +9 ($110 to win $100)
Detroit +10.5 ($110 to win $100)
NY Giants -5 ($55 to win $50)
