College Basketball Teasers Betting

Basketball Teasers

The teaser is 1 bet consisting of 2 or more propositions bets in which you are allowed to adjust the point spread in your favor. If there is ANY loss in a teaser, the entire teaser results in a loss!! Otherwise, if the teaser contains a push, no action, or tie, the teaser will revert to the next amount of teams, paying the odds of the new teaser. In the case of a two-team teaser, if there is a push, no action, or tie, the wager will be refunded.

Bet Basketball Moneylines - NCAA moneyline betting

When betting the basketball money line. It is based on just having the team win the game. No point spread is involved. An example would look like this. New York at Cleveland. Cavaliers are -5 with a total of 183. Cleveland is -210 on the money line while New York is +180. So if you like Cleveland on the money line you are risking 210 to win 100. If you like the Knicks, you are risking 100 to win 180. The moneyline is not as heavily bet in the NBA but is something you may want to add to your betting menu when you see a good opportunity.

The -165 means you must risk $165 to win $100 on the Pistons while the +145 means you get back $145 for each $100 risked should the Pistons win outright. Any -number means that is the risk to win $100 and any +number is the payoff for risking $100. It is that simple. In the event of a tie, all moneyline wagers are settled as a Push and monies are refunded. The difference between the two lines typically starts at 20 "cents" in basketball and gets larger as the numbers get higher. For example, if the favorite is -240, the dog may be +200, a difference of 40 "cents". The higher difference at higher numbers simply serves to keep the percentage of vig for the house roughly the same.

Not every moneyline will present an opportunity, but be sure to compare the moneylines and corresponding spread. Wagering is a game of supply and demand. Going against the public trends will lead to you getting better "prices" on all your plays and you will be more profitable in the long run.

NCAA College betting -  First Half  Basketball Betting

There is not much secret in how First Half lines are derived; it is generally just the pointspread for the game cut in half with a half-point to full-point adjustment against the favorite.

It is very easy to find a team's total points for and against for the season as a total. Every newspaper and major sports website provides this readily. What is tougher to find is a team's points for and against broken out by first half and second half. I track this myself every week in a spreadsheet and it helps because interesting mismatches do appear. Remember that a team is playing the same opponent in both half's of every game so even great and horrible teams will have a stronger half.

Some teams get off to a quick start but fade while others start slowly but finish strong. When you compare two teams that are playing each other and see that one plays better in the first half and their opponent plays better in the second half, there may be an opportunity to exploit the weakness of the first half pointspread. This is by no means a system, but it is definitely something you can easily do in a few minutes every week.
