If I take your pathetic little chicken-shit scratch of $100, do you promise to stfu and crawl back in the the little hole from whence you came? Now, because you are too stupid to know what you are actually BETTING on (that much you've made plainly obvious), I will make it CRYSTAL CLEAR here so you have NO EXCUSES when you lose...

 

Here is the section at the bottom of my weekly teaser thread that you will actually need to READ and ABSORB. THEN come back and tell me you want to give me your money and I will happily take your lousy beer money.

What is an 'Anchor'?

An 'Anchor' is a teased SIDE from which all other teased Sides and/or Totals on your play card(s) stem from (note that I said "Side", not Total to define the Anchor - anchoring a Total is not recommended). It is the singular 'lightning rod' Side that is present in ALL of your relevant teaser tickets, and it provides a special and rare opportunity to leverage & effectively get 'FREE' points on ANY Side/Total of your choice as we do not consider an Anchor to be an 'official selection' - rather, it is treated as a 'pre-defined winner'. To qualify as an Anchor, the Side & line must be DROP-DEAD ROCK SOLID in EVERY respect otherwise you are gambling, not intelligently investing. Remember, if you lose your Anchor(s), you lose your ship.

Advanced Anchor Teasing - 'Triple Method'

There are 3 different techniques you can employ when triple Anchor Teasing:

1) FULL Triple-Anchor 'Stacking': The most EXTREME, but with the greatest potential reward. NOT RECOMMENDED without a minimum of a 13pt cushion. This method effectively gives you a 'FREE' 13pts on every other line on the card. With this approach, you have 3 Anchors in a 4-Team 13pt teaser. If your 4th (non-anchored) selection with the 'FREE' 13pt cushion wins, the entire ticket wins (as long as all 3 of the Anchors hold of course). Remember, for a play to qualify as an Anchor, it has to be EXTREMELY SECURE & ROCK-SOLID in EVERY respect. If one of these Anchors fails, your maximum recoverable dollars is $0. If you are not comfortable with this approach, then move onto the next.

2) Anchor 'Rotation': Evenly select and distribute 2 of 3 Anchors to each of your 4-Team 13pt teaser tickets. With this approach, you are playing on 2 other (non-anchored) Sides or Totals (or a combination of Sides/Totals) and getting an extra 'FREE' 13pt cushion with each of them - if they both win, the entire ticket wins (as long as the Anchors hold of course). There are three possible combinations for your Anchors for each ticket -- 1 & 2, 1 & 3, 2 & 3. To keep things simple, let's imagine we have only 3 tickets in total and laid $100 on each and followed the rotation schedule as mentioned, and assumed a 4-Team 13pt teaser paid out at a nominal -130. If one of the anchors fails, your maximum recoverable dollars would be: original stake on ticket without failed Anchor $100 + payout ($100 x 77%) = $177. (You laid $300 in total at the outset, and lost $123 net.)

3) 3-Way Anchor 'Mirroring': 33.33% of the laid money is evenly distributed to each Anchor. There is only 1 of 3 Anchors present on each ticket with this approach. To keep it simple, let's assume that there are only 3 plays (outside of Anchor selections) that you like on the board this week. Let's also assume a 4-Team 13pt teaser paid out at a nominal -130. In this scenario you have a total of 3 teaser tickets. If one of the anchors fails, your maximum recoverable dollars would be: original stakes recovered ($100 x 2) + payouts ($100 x 77%) x 2 = $354. (You laid $300 in total at the outset, and won $54 net.) This is the most secure method for those new to triple Anchor teasing.

So, you are betting that my 'lightning-rod' side teased 13pts WILL NOT COVER - not the other plays in the ticket idiot, the SINGLE SIDE. The purpose of a 13pt AOTY selection is to effectively convert a 3-Team 10pt teaser ticket into a 3-Team 13pt ticket you dumbshit, at -120 to -130 (depending where you book), as we DO NOT CONSIDER THE AOTY AN OFFICIAL SELECTION. So, if the 13pt single AOTY comes through, and hypothetically ever other regular play on the ticket loses, then YOU LOSE, and will be sending me your beer money. Get it? Got it? Good.
