Re: *** Official August - October Chatter Thread ***
EV question (sort of) regarding Pleaser bets - non-wong teasers and parlays are more -EV than straight wagers, however, not all teasers are created equal. Teasers across the 0 are just awful, whereas wong-ian teasers are +EV.
Now does the same logic apply to pleaser bets? More specifically, is 'pleasing' across the 0 (from +3 to -3, for example) a great 'please'? 3 team pleasers, for example, as WSEX offers them, are -6, $1700/$100. I suspect Pinnacle's point system would give me a quick and dirty answer (where you can work out the money line from the points and see if you finish out ahead, then give a little....fudge factor for the fact that you're going across the zero), but I haven't looked at it.
