Sports Teaser
Jan 16, 2021 In a teaser, bettors can adjust the spread or total in their favor to get more desirable numbers, typically by six points. This is known as teasing “up” or “down.” All of the legs in the teaser. On the Reverse Teaser card, the point spreads are adjusted so the favored teams must cover a larger point spread and underdog teams must cover a point spread that is smaller, and, in some cases, even minus points. In some cases, both teams in a game may be minus points and you may not bet both teams in that game.
A teaser is a type of bet that allows you to combine your bets on two or more different games. You can adjust the point spreads for those games from 4 to 5 points in Basketball and from 6 to 7 points in Football.
Football Betting Teasers
Rules:
Sports Teaser
- A ‘tie’ or ‘no action’ and a ‘win’ on a 2 team teaser shall constitute a ‘no action’ wager.
- A ‘tie’ or a ‘no action’ and a ‘loss’ on a two team teaser shall constitute a ‘losing’ wager.
- Ties on a 3 or more team teaser shall revert to the next lowest betting bracket for pay-off: for example: A 5 team teaser with one tie becomes a 4 team teaser (except on our special 3 team 10 point football or 7 point basketball teasers, on which the odds are 5/6 and ties lose).
- On our special 3 team 10 point football or 7 point basketball teasers (sometimes known as Sweetheart teasers), odds are -120 (5/6) and ties lose. Only point spreads of the same sport may be placed in these special teasers. If a selection has no-action due to postponement or cancelation, the whole sweetheart teaser will have no-action.
- You cannot combine different sports in a teaser. You can combine professional and college of the same sport.

The Football and Basketball Teaser and Parlay Cards offer you the opportunity to place teasers and parlays on a combination of College and Professional games of the same sport. They do not give the option of buying points on spreads or totals.
Sweetheart Teasers:
The 3 team 10 point teaser (7 points in basketball) is a special type of teaser, also called a 'sweetheart teaser'.
- Only point spreads can be placed in a sweetheart teaser.
- Sport types cannot be mixed.
- College and professional teams of the same sport can be placed in a sweetheart teaser.
Because of the extra advantage given in a greater number of points at -120 (10/12) odds, a tie (push) in this type of teaser will result in the wager being graded as a loss. If a selection has no-action due to postponement or cancelation, the whole sweetheart teaser will have no-action.
