Out of the two the only bet that would be to your advantage is a teaser that crosses both of the big key numbers 3 and 7.
If the line is 2.5 take the dog and tease it up to 8.5 this way you get +3 and +7. It also works the other way. If the favorite is -8.5 then take the favorite and make it -2.5.
There is one way on parlays but most books don't allow you to do this. You want to play a correlated parlay when the spread is huge.
Say the line is 25 and the total is 41. You want to play the fav at -25 and over 41. If the team is going to cover 25 they most likely will score 41 points between them.You can also do the opposite in taking the dog +25 and under 41.
Once in a while you'll find a book that gives 7-1 on three team parlays . This is true odds and is a good bet.
To summarize play teasers when you can cross both 3 and 7. Only play correlated parlays or parlays with true odds.
