Figure that I need around 70% on the teaser plays to really make money. I was hitting around 80% for most of the first 4 weeks but last week I was nowhere to be found. Hoping to regress back to winning this week. That texas play, at anything less than a TD, looks fantastic.

P.S.
Somewhere around 15% of my teased plays actually needed the extra points. No clue how to evaluate that, at present. Working on it.

They are called teasers for a reason. They are a tease because they look good but the points rarely come into play. I never play teasers because of this.

 

[EXTRAPOLATER]

I've always made money with teasers so I keep playing them. Whether or not I'd make more just by playing all straights is irrelevant due to the previous statement. 7-0-1 on early teaser calls with 2 of the 8 needing the extra points.

Sorry about your chisox play.

I respect your insight in MLB and will continue to read your posts. I appreciate your work.

Reasonable minds can differ about teasers, but of course keep doing what works for you. Good luck.

Much more decent words than I've received lately. Thanks.

sorry about the shot

Don't sweat it. Living in Tampa, I am a huge Rays fan, so I will be pulling for them all the way. I hope they play the Red Sox because they will have homefield, and as you know they are a different team in the dome. Red Sox will probably be favored if that series happens, maybe somewhere between -130 to
-150. I may take them to hedge my $10 bet at before the season started for Rays to win AL. I bet Rays to win AL and Marlins to win NL for $10 each just for the heck of it. Both those were 50-1 on sportsbook, probably were even longer shots in vegas. Anyway, looking forward to your posts.

Ex,

you stumbled on lastfm? I just heard about it. Found "Animals" and listened to it 3 times straight. I can't remember when I heard "Sheep".

Cheap Trick stuff too. I'm wearin' it out.

Enjoy if you haven't heard about it.
