Definition

A teaser is a selection of two or more outcomes in a single wager in which either the pointspread or total is adjusted in the bettor's favor. Each sport has its own range of points for teaser selections. A teaser adjusts the spread for the favorite so that it decreases the posted spread, or conversely, increases the posted spread for the underdog. If you select a total, the adjustment makes totals higher-to-go-under or lower-to-go-over.

Only the following sports/line-types may be teased:

* football spreads/totals by 6, 6.5 or 7 points.
* basketball spreads/totals by 4, 4.5 or 5 points.

Example:

If the lines you want to tease are Denver Broncos +3 and NY Jets vs. NY Giants over 37, your 2-team 6-point teaser would be:

Denver Broncos +9
Jet/Giants over 31

Both results need to be correct for this teaser to be a winner.

Sweetheart Teasers

A Sweetheart Teaser is a special teaser for both basketball and football, where you have the choice of incorporating either 3 or 4 picks (teams). Instead of the regular points, you may tease football by 10 (3 team) and 13 (4 team) points and basketball by 8 (3 team) and 10 (4 team) points. The payout in a 3 team sweetheart teaser is 10/11 and the payout in a 4 team sweetheart teaser is 5/6. A push in a sweetheart teaser is a loss. Sweetheart teasers never reduce. There are no Sweetheart Teasers for baseball.

Example:

If the lines you want to tease are Denver Broncos +3, NY Jets vs. NY Giants over 37, and Oakland Raiders -5, your 3-team Sweetheart teaser (10 points) would be

Denver Broncos +13
Jet/Giants over 27
Oakland +5
Cross-sport Teasers - Football with Basketball

You may also bet cross-sport teasers. When you wager on cross-sport teasers with football and basketball, the points you receive remain in the same category:

* Football 6.0 points with basketball 4.0 points
* Football 6.5 points with basketball 4.5 points
* Football 7.0 points with basketball 5.0 points
* Football 10.0 points with basketball 8.0 points (Sweetheart Teaser)

For example, if you want to tease your football picks by 6, you'll have to tease your corresponding basketball pick(s) by 4. If you tease your basketball picks by 5 points, you'll have to tease your corresponding football pick(s) by 7 points.

Example:

If the line you want to tease are Denver Broncos +3 and LA Lakers -10, your 2-team 6-point-football and 4-point-basketball teaser would be:

Denver Broncos +9 (teased 6 points)
LA Lakers -6 (teased 4 points)

Both results need to be correct for this teaser to be a winner.

Note: You may not combine football/basketball in four team sweetheart teasers.

Rules

There are no partial payouts. All propositions must cover for the teaser to be considered a win. (Exception: a push in a regular teaser reduces the payout). If any proposition loses, the entire teaser will be considered a loss.

A push in a regular teaser of 3 teams or more reduces the number of plays in the teaser. For example, a 4-team teaser has two pushes, it will become a 2-team teaser and the payout will be recalculated based on the new number of plays.

A push in a 2-team regular teaser results in a push. Also, if any portion of a 2-team teaser has a result of "No Action", the entire teaser will be graded "No Action".

A push in a Sweetheart Teaser is a loss. Sweetheart teasers never reduce and must have ALL propositions cover for the teaser to be considered a win. If any portion of a Sweetheart teaser has a result of "No Action", the entire Sweetheart teaser will be graded "No Action".

Games not played on the date specified are considered "No Action" and will reduce the teaser to the next lowest number of plays. Payouts are adjusted accordingly.

Maximum number of selections in a regular football or basketball teaser is 10.
