Sportsbook Wager Type: Teasers

New to sportsbook wagers? A Teaser wager type lets you adjust the line in your favor.

A Teaser wager lets you adjust the line in your favor when betting on 2 or more teams. You change the point spread to make your bet easier to win.

How Teasers Work

  • You choose 2 or more teams.

  • You pick how many points to “tease” — like 6, 10, or 13 points.

  • The spread moves in your favor by that amount.

Example:

  • Patriots are -7.

  • Bills are -10.

  • You pick a 6-point teaser.

  • New lines:

    • Patriots are now -1.

    • Bills are now -4.

    • Your bet wins only if both teams cover the new lines.

Teaser Bets: Terms and Conditions

Any loss = total loss of the teaser bet.

  • A push (tie) in a 2-team teaser = refund.

  • A push in a 3 to 7-team teaser = bet drops one level (e.g., 6-team becomes 5-team.)
