I have 2 decent 5 leg parlays, one coming down to the Jets and point and other Pats and the points. Nail bitters!

Was up by a half point with 2 mins and something to go. Pats have the ball and Mac Jones gives up a safety. Un Focking real. Never liked him and will hate him forever now!

I used RR for my picks, exactly the same teams you posted above but also added Chargers for Monday night for 5 teams total. I set the points +6 higher in the alternative spread tab. In the bet slip I can either do as a single 5 team parlay or the RR options give me 2 team combos, 3 team, 4 team or all combos. All combos came out to 26 different bets, which I did for $1, which came out to $26 total. Total profit if all hit is $62ish. 

Update - My picks of Washington, Chicago, Seattle, and New England all hit and have paid out about $30ish. I still have the chargers as part of the round robin and if they cover I'll get about another $32. In all it was 26 separate bets for $1 each 

On another note I noticed last night that both the eagles and rams lines moved to -7. So I teased them both down to -1 and parlayed them. As you know, the eagles lost to the jets. Go figure.

Edit - Reviewing the wong teaser system, I should not have done anything with the Rams or Eagles. I should have only teased them down at -7.5, -8, or  -8.5. Of course it wouldn't have mattered anyway with the Eagles. But now I believe I grasp the concept a lot better. Live & learn.

I got Tyler Ass'd. 

But it was worth it because we learned two things:

1- You're a POS that, even though asked several times, cant keep your sissy fights out of the wagering thread. Everyone sees that. 

2- Taylor > Jones.

... Find all the 1.5, 2, and 2.5 underdogs (tease these up). Then find all the 7.5, 8, and 8.5 favorites (tease these down). Mix and match them all in to 2-team, 6-point teasers.
 

 

Not looking to change the wong teaser methodology, but it occurred to me there could be another way to tease underdogs...

For underdogs that are +7.5, +8, and +8.5, would it work to tease them up by 1.5 each so they are getting +9, +9.5, and +10 instead of teasing the favorite down by 6 points each? The odds would be better since you're not moving the spread nearly as much.

I haven't found a favorable way to tease the favorites by only 1.5 points though. Perhaps we ponder it more if the above thinking makes sense.

Thoughts?

The value in the teaser is the 6 points and pushing it through the key numbers of 7 and 3. Adding a point or 2 is like buying or adding a point in a straight bet which I don't do.

I'm up big on the year including this weekend and I'm taking the sucker bets and I don't care. Chargers +1.5 and over 51.

I don't recommend those bets, I'm just doing it.

Oh hell, I'm even betting the Blackhawks over Toronto. :shocking:

Even if I lose tonight, I'm up $3700 on the year. I don't bet for a living so that's fine with me.

I'm also taking the over in the Blackhawks game (more wise than playing the hawks). That dude Austin Matthews on the Leafs is sick. 6 goals in his two first games of the season. I knew he was good but holy fock what a start.

Hawks have been playing decent defense though. Hope this game is on Hulu tonight.

Yeah, the football game is on ESPN it looks like. I went over to the TV tab in HULU and looked up Hockey and it took me to ESPN+ and it shows as starting at 6:30 for the broadcast so I clicked on it and it's just showing advertising at the moment. Not sure if I have ESPN+ but I'll find out in about 8 minutes. 

After football season I think I'll shut down HULU until next year NFL season. I don't watch much TV and the prices for HULU have been going up. No reason to pay $80+ a month for watching an hour or two of TV per week. 

Right now the ESPN+ channel is saying "Event about to start". :dunno:

If I didn’t watch sports I would cut my cable/streaming services down to a minimal level. I’m football, college hoops, and golf. I have no off-season so I have to get focked by subscriptions

Cool and CBS Sports will tell you where the games air if you click them on, I only have ESPN + with the Hulu and Disney package. I like ESPN + and was paying 10 alone for it, so got the package for a few bucks more.

My girlfriend loves the streaming services. She watches mostly Disney+, Neflix, and Prime. She never watches Hulu. Only I do mostly because of sports.

I love this hockey broadcast. They don't oversell or act like idiots like the joke pregame shows that the NFL game shows put on. The NHL is so much more real and grounded.

I’m thinking about Quentin Johnson o 33.5 receiving. Palmer has a groin issue right now that could limit him. Doing so would put me all in with this angle because I’m already going Palmer under on receptions

Hmmm. Given Cleveland's big win this weekend that could be a clever bet. But  Cleveland's defense is no focking joke. I need to look closer on that one.

I agree and that is why I tried to talk kilroy out of taking SF -4.5 a few pages back. I'm also a firm believer in the let down game. Good chance Cleveland has a hangover going on the road next week.

I been doing good this season taking the opposite of teams that win big or pulled a upset the week before. Why I like Dallas tonight cause San Fran destroyed them. The average better has short term memory.
