    Trying to build my betting bank roll so I'm going 3 team super teaser (10.5 points) this week:

    Chicago +7 vs Titans
    Houston +0.5 vs Buffalo
    GB +0 vs Arizona

    HOU and GB are favorites at home and just have to win outright. Bears getting a touchdown on the road against the Titans. Im hoping I'm good on this one.

    Can you explain to me the general rules for payouts on teasers. For example...if the juice is 10%, you bet 110 to win 100.

    There is no juice on teasers. You get a set odd ( X to 1 off the board and X for 1 on parlay cards). The odds you get also depend on how many points you want to tease and how many teams you are going to play on a teaser.

    You can tease 6, 6.5 and 7 points on NFL teasers. You can tease 10 points on college football.

    You can tease between 3 and 8 teams (including the totals) on teasers.

    My advice to everyone and anyone wanting to wager is really simple:
    start with a $20 straight wager - keep on rolling it over. I had my $20 investment up to $800 after 4 weeks until the Texans lost vs Green Bay (I picked one NFL and one soccer game each week and took out over $100 after the 3rd week).

    Each person is different, so find whatever betting "system" works for you best. And if you do play parlays, anything over 4 teams, you might as well be playing the lottery.

    I have a sure-fire 11 team parlay for this weekend that is SURE to hit.

    Cosmic lords have already willed the results and I also found them using the Bible Code.



    Again, this is my 11 team parlay IRON CLAD LOCK OF THE WEEK.

    Do it now, cosmic lords have willed it!

    I like the picks but a draw in the EPL game would worry me about that card.

    Y'all are getting the terms mixed up. Teasing points is one thing where your payouts get worse as you add points to whichever side of the line you choose. Betting multiple games where you have to win all parts to win the bet is called a parlay.

    When it rains it pours...I took the same games except i took them individually.

    They all covered. You would have had a nice payout on a 3 team parlay (instead of a teaser)
