Teaser Payout Table
- Off the Board Teaser Odds. A teaser is a wager where a patron can alter the point spread or total on a list of games (2-10 teams) in the players favor. The additional points that the player receives on each selection reduces the odds. Below are the pay table teaser odds.
- For NBA teasers, the options are 4, 4.5, and 5 points. At most books, the maximum teams you can include in a teaser is 10. As mentioned, with both sports, the payouts are predetermined based on the number of teams and the size of the spread adjustment. Here are two full charts of standard teaser payouts in basketball and football.

Teaser Rules & Payouts. Attention: These rules supercede information on any printed materials. On a 2 team teaser: A tie and a win is a push. A tie and a loss is a loss. Ties on a 3 or more team Teasers revert to the payout on the next teaser. Example 4 Wins and a Tie on a 5 team Teaser reduce payout to that of a 4 team Teaser, etc.
How Much Does A Teaser Bet Pay
Teasers betting is something not all bettors are aware of, yet it is an option that allows you to boost your chances of winning a bet featuring multiple selections (albeit at reduced odds). How do Teaser bets work, what are their payouts and what Teasers betting does Pinnacle offer? Read on to find out.
Teasers betting explained
In Teasers betting, the bettor receives a specified favourable point adjustment for every selection of a multiple selection bet, with the bet then also set at a fixed payout.
Teaser bet example
Here is how a six-point Teaser bet would work on Super Bowl LIV contested between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers:
Market | Points set for regular bet | Points set for six-point Teaser bet |
Kansas City Chiefs (Handicap) | +2.5 | +8.5 |
San Francisco 49ers (Handicap) | -2.5 | +3.5 |
Over/Under | 45.5 | Over 39.5, Under 51.5 |
As you can see, if somebody wanted to bet on the Handicap for the Kansas City Chiefs, they would move from a +2.5 underdog to a +8.5 (2.5 + 6) underdog, greatly increasing the chance of winning this selection. Equally, the Handicap on the San Francisco 49ers would move from -2.5 favourites to +3.5 (-2.5 + 6) underdogs.
For Over/Under bets, Teaser bets open up two separate markets to assist your bet. In this instance, when the Over/Under was set at 45.5, this would move to Over 39.5 (45.5 - 6) and Under 51.5 (45.5 + 6), essentially boosting your chances of winning by six points either way.
All of this does come with a reduced and fixed payout. If someone was to place a €100 Multiple bet on either team to win on the Handicap in one game and the Over/Under for another game, the payout would likely be around €365 (€265 profit), based on odds of -110 / 1.909 for each selection. However, the same bet with a six-point Teaser would have a lower payout with combined odds of -110 / 1.909, meaning that a €100 bet would only win €190.90 (€90.90 profit).

Teasers betting rules: Things to consider
There are several things you need to remember when placing a Teaser bet with Pinnacle. Most frequently, this relates to what happens when a tie occurs in at least one of your selections that form the bet or any are deemed to have no action.
Teaser bet ties
In the instance of a tie, on both football and basketball Teaser bets involving three teams or more, the selection(s) are removed and the payout is adjusted accordingly. For instance, a Teaser bet involving four teams would be reduced to three teams.
For football and basketball Teaser bets involving just two teams, when at least one selection is a tie or deemed to have no action, the entire bet is considered a push and all money is refunded. If any selection of a Super Teaser bet is a tie or deemed to have no action, the entire bet is graded as no action and all money is refunded irrespective of the number of teams involved.
Teaser bet base Handicap adjustments
On certain occasions, the point adjustment for Teaser bets may also be different than what you are expecting if the base Handicap for a Teaser has been moved to a different Handicap. This is because in some situations, Pinnacle has to limit our exposure and thus cannot allow unlimited Teaser bets to be placed at certain prices.
For instance, if for an NFL game the Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks were set at Handicaps of -7.5 and +7.5 respectively (a base Handicap of 7.5), Pinnacle may move the base Handicap to 9.5 to offer six-point Teaser bets.
As a result, the Teaser bet Handicaps set would be Green Bay Packers at -3.5 and Seattle Seahawks at +3.5 as opposed to Green Bay Packers at -1.5 and Seattle Seahawks at +1.5 that you would ordinarily expect.
