Other Types of Specialty Betting
- Teasers/Pleasers
One teaser bet is one reduced-risk parlay that the line will be moved in favor of bettors. With teaser bets, you will be able to reduce risk when you can shift multiple lines in your favor. Similar to a parlay, the teaser bet is possibly be made on two games or more. Unlike a parlay, teasers tend to be only available for basketball and football games.
Each sportsbook often has a different model of teaser payout. The point amount you can tease varies as well, yet usually ranges from six to seven points when it comes to football as well as four and seven points when basketball involves.
Unlike teasers, pleasers are one increased risk parlay that the line will be moved against the bettor.
- If-Bets
One if-bet is one bet sequence that base on the subsequent bets’ outcome. If-bets can be leveraged if you fail to have plenty of bankrolls and desire the opportunity to bet on several games you otherwise may not afford.
For instance, if you have 110 USD in your account and wish to bet on two NFL games, then you may put one if-bet. Let’s say you are going to bet 110 USD on the Raiders -3 at odds (-110) to win over the Bears. If your if-bet’s “leg” wins, then you will profit 100 USD. For the second leg, you will bet 110 USD on the Patriots -10 at odds (-110) to beat the Cowboys. When the Patriots win, the profit will be another 100 USD, for a total profit of 200 USD.
If the first leg wins yet your second leg loses, then you will only lose 10 USD. If the first leg loses, then you will lose 110 USD. Is it clear to you now!
