I'm sorry, I meant 6 pt. teasers, not 6.5. My bad.

Can you look at my math....doesn't the threeteamer provide a better value?

Thanks,

Very slightly, it's easier to gain an advantage over the house when teasing two teams at 6 at +100 than when teasing 3 teams at 6 points at +180. Your break even win rate on individual games needs to be 70.7% rather than 70.9%. You're likely not making a bad bet if you're gaining the 3 and the 7 with 3 teams. Just expect a lot more variance (i.e., short-term swings negative and positive).
