From the tout section....

Seabass
300 Teaser of Year Pitt +3, Indy/Jets under 47
200 Denver
100 Skins, Raiders (steam)
50 KC, NYJ, GB over, HOU

Pitts +3 in a two-team teaser of the year @):mad:

Pitts won by 3, but I hate this pick

what's the typical rule if Baltimore won by 3 ?

the teasers that i see people recommend on these forums can at times be laughable.

Any thoughts on how bad this 300* teaser of the year is ?

I found an old thread about teasers

http://www.therxforum.com/showthread.php?t=646420&highlight=teaser+rules

This reeks of awful using a +3 with a 47 total, IMO !

Am I wrong ?

I haven't bet a teaser in a long time, the only ones I'd consider are Wong teasers crossing 3 and 7.

I was thinking about fading this one, but it didn't seem correct either, as it doesn't meet the criteria.

This tout is from my area, I can't help but be curious about his picks.

His teasers are usually like 20*, and make no sense to me. This one looks awful ( in theory) to me.

of course the lower the total, the more powerful the points on the teaser, 6 points on a total of say "33" in an NFL game is very different from 6 points on a total of say "47".

additionally, crossing the zero is said to be a NO NO, ideally crossing a "3" and a "7" is favorable whether teasing up or down.

those are some very basics....

Teasers are tough now, back in the day ABC had lay -110 7 point teasers where TIES WON!!! those were the days.

now most books have 6 point teasers at -110.

I don't even know the teaser rules on two teams.

what's a push and lose, push and win graded at anymore.

linked thread gave conflicting info.

I think you can still get 6 points at +100 ?

I only ever did them with hooks, like 2.5, 7.5 ,8.5, when I played teasers, because I never knew what would happen if I took -8 to -2, and it landed 2.

How did Wong teasers do this year, anybody know ?
