Pleaser

Pleaser is a type of parlay bet that involves moving the point spread or total against the bettor's favor in exchange for higher odds and a bigger potential payout. It is essentially the opposite of a teaser bet.

For example, in an NFL pleaser:

• If Team A is favored by -3 points, a pleaser might adjust it to -9, meaning Team A must now win by at least 10 points for the bet to win.
• If Team B is +5 underdog, a pleaser might move it to +1, making it much harder for them to cover.

Since pleasers make winning more difficult, they offer significantly higher odds than standard parlays. They are considered high-risk, high-reward bets and are mainly used by experienced bettors looking for big payouts.
