    Default PK and moneyline - any difference?

    Hey...as you all know prolly, Pinny lets you buy/sell points for the spread. If i set it to "PK", its +-0.
    So it should be the same as the moneyline...but the odds are not the same, for example on a NBA game it was +101 for PK, and +103 for the ML.

    Where am i wrong here?

    there lines lag sometimes, so you can take advantage of there s/w glitches if you wanted too.

    Quarm- The ML and spread on the drop down menu are mutually exclusive. They have nothing to do with each other so check both and take the better odds.

    Pick and -.5 are the same as well, unless a tie is possible, so if you get a free half off of -1 in NBA, it's a pick. A free half off a true pick is nothing at all ! If buying points don't buy to pick, buy to -.5.

    Also HT lines can fool you. If a team is up by 4 then 3.5 is the same as 4.5 as the game can't tie with the rare exception in the NFL.

    don't bet on -0.5 for 1st half ! I had Detroit -0.5 against Phoenix , and 1st half ended 52-52 .

    First half is an event that can end tied, whole game is not in most sports. Soccer is about only game that ends in ties, I don't count NFL since ties are years apart.

    I find at a lot of books it is common to see a lag between the ml, and the point spread.

    good stuff here...I've noticed the difference too and just usually take the best juice between the spread or the ML...
