I'm not much of an authority, and have no idea what that teaser pays, but it looks like you could take either team on the open teaser and take the other team on a straight line bet for some sort of guaranteed profit.

Why not take Detroit ML @ ~+230? If the bears don't cover -.5, they lose.

In your scenario you either
A) Hit teaser 380 lose det -135 and win 245
B)Lose teaser -100 and win 100 on detroit +7 to break even

In my scenario you either
A) hit tease(380-100) you win 280
B)lose tease(-100+230) you win +130
Unless I did that wrong, you win more in either of my scenarios.

Either way good luck!

Thats exactly what I was thinking Garddock.

His reasoning is he hoping to win it all w a Bears SU by not ATS win vs guaranteeing to win something.

Different strokes for Diff folks !!

@showstoppa

Ahhh, forgot about scenario C for him, where he takes the cake when Det loses by 1-7 pts.

Myself, I'd just take the gty monies, but as you said, variety is the spice of life!

Kill it Mark!

Markinc, all the good stuff as in Kharma your way!!!

I think you have a good bet. Half-time maybe???

If you are losing, you could take an out.

I really do not know how Americans can bet. The rules are different here. We have more options. For example, you could trade out.

I know, trading is a banned subject in this forum.

That is why it has potential. : )

Go MIL!!! NBA! LOL!!!

I need an out!!!

You should get the cover on CHI Markinc. You just need the 10 points to stay.

You know how people chase???

Well, let us make it better. Not every night wins. I know where my balls are. I could do it for 1K.

I do not think trading can be taught. It is a heart thing.

Why not bet 1K???

Cuz I do not have 100K in my bank account!!! lol!!!

Think about it. It is the same mistake margin traders make. They trade on margin, but cannot beat up the game.

1% of BR, no prob!

It is not magic. I just look at all the odds.

If DET gets a 3 point field goal, hold.

Taberanac, the guy got into the blues too much. Song change!!!

If you lose, you need a song...
