When playing a 2 team 6 pt teaser the "traditional" vig is risk 120 to win 100 correct ?

This leads me to my ? if you had the same bet at risk 110 to win 100
do you think the better play would be a straight up play at -110 to win 100

OR

the 2 team 6 pt teaser at the same odds....I realize you STILL have to win TWO games but was thinking moving the line 6 pts might more then compensate for that ?

I already talk all about teasers on my Odds site. In fact, I just updated that page earlier this week.

However, briefly, for a random picker, teasers are a lousy bet, so betting straight up against the spread is the better bet.
