Parlays and teasers are combination bets, which are offered within all the football betting venues. The more games combined into one single wager, the higher the odds and the bigger the payout. A Parlay is a wager in which two or more bets are combined. All bets within the wager, however, must win in order for the player to collect on his parlay. The concept is appealing to the bettor as the linemaker offers extra dollars for the bettor's skills to pick more than one game correctly at a time. Football Parlays involve more than one team on the same bet. You may combine several teams into one wager. All teams and/or totals must cover the point spread to win the bet. Odds and the number of teams vary from casino to casino. Any game that results in a push reduces the parlay one team. A two-team parlay would become a straight bet. Parlay Cards offer the potential for huge return while betting as little as two dollars. Teaser bets are similar to parlays in that they are multiple bets combined in the same wager. As with parlays, all individual bets must win in order for the teaser to win. There is, however, one distinct differences from parlays: The bettor is allowed to move the betting line a determined number of points in his favor! Teasers cannot be straight bets. "Teasing" the point spread is done adding points to an underdog, or subtracting points from a favorite. This increases the probability of winning your bet, but decreases the odds of the parlay. Odds and the number of points available to "tease" vary from casino to casino. MVP Sportsbook Offers complete football betting services, get up to 30% in sign up bonuses.

The bettor has the option to wager on the "OVER", betting the team will score more than the total number posted by the bookmaker, or the bettor can wager on the "UNDER", hoping that the teams will score less than the number posted by the bookmaker. You may wager that the total score of the game will be more or less than the number listed. It makes no difference which team covers the spread. Simply add the final score of each team. The payout, unless stated otherwise, is figured at odds of 10/11. In some cases, bettors have the option to discard the point spread and bet on which team will win. This is called betting on the "Money Line". -With Money Line Bets the team wagered on just has to win the game. The amount you lay or take for each game may vary. The money line that is read at the time of your wager is the money line you keep regardless of any future line movement. Example the player wagers on Miami -160 at Buffalo +260. If Miami wins then the player would lay $160.00 to win $100.00. If the player bet on Buffalo then the player would lay $100.00 to win $260.00 A "minus" (-) preceding the number indicates the team is a favorite. A "plus" (+) preceding the number indicates the team is an underdog. Example, the Dolphins' odds are -180, meaning an $18 bet would win $10, for a return of $28. The Jets' odds are +160, meaning a $10 bet would win $16, for a return of $26.
