Special
Teasers
3 team Sp 7 pts 12/10
4 team Sp 9 pts 13/10
A tie + loss = Loss
A tie + win = Push
In case of no action
or a tie in a Vegas Teaser it reverts to a lower number
i.e. a 4 team teaser with one tie and three wins will
revert to a three team teaser with its corresponding
pay-out. The exception will be the two team teaser in
the event of a win and a tie it will be graded as a
push. Any loss will make your teaser a loser.
In a 3 team or 4 team
special teaser any combination of ties and wins is a
tie. But a tie and a loss is a loser.
Buying Points
Points can be bought
in basketball for the complete game only. They can be
bought on the sides and the totals. The following table
shows how much it cost to buy points. When you buy points
the spread will change to your advantage but will increase
the amount you have to risk in order to win the bet.
If the line on the Bucks is -3.5 -110 and you buy 2
points the new line will be Bucks -2 -150.
