2011 teasers Week 1

On another year of winning teasers here.  Of couse last year was another good year just like every year I post them here.

Rookies save your teasers are for suckers post. I stake my rep saying I make money on them and I will show you how.  It's not what you tease, it's how you tease.

This year I'm using 5Dimes again, but remember they like to play with the lines also I am using Pinny again.  Where most of you won't/ don't know to play Pinny I will also post BetAnySports odds.  They have the best teaser odds behind 5Dimes.

What I play

2 team 6pt Ev
2 team 6.5pt -110
2 team 7pt -120
3 team 6pt +180
3 team 6.5pt +165
3 team 7pt +150
3 team 10pt -115

Starting out tonight with a 2 team 6pt teaser

Holy shit, Dimes actually isn't playing with the lines this week.  Just give them a few weeks.

Taking

Saints +10.5
Cards -2

GL

how about 3 team 6.5 teaser

Clev 0

Ari -.5

Pitt +8

what do you think?

Umm, but you did the same thing with ARZ (effectively, by teasing it down to -2; 0 would be better)

Can you explain why you think teasing a fav down to 0 is a bad idea, if you think they are going to win?

Two ways to win if you tease Cincy (underdog) instead of Cleveland  (favorite).

Cincy +6.5

Cincy outright

Cleveland must win

Ummmmm...I did not even come close to doing the same thing.  0 is horrible.

Let me give you a teaser lesson. 

The reason you don't go to 0 or cross it is because you are losing a full point of value. So you are paying for a 7-point teaser when the move from -2.5 to +4.5 is really only 6 points. This is because a line of +/-0.5 doesn't exist, so the moves from -1 to Pick and from Pick to +1 should only each be counted as 1/2 point movers.

I will check them out.
