Football Question: Buying off the Hooks

bullets · Aug 4, 2006

Any info would be greatly appreciated. I hardly ever buy off the hook unless its 3 1/2 down to 3 or 7 1/2 down to 7.

check your juice on those buys. some charge more than others on or off 3 and on or off 7.

especially locals.

130 on or off 3 here.

i don't believe in buying the hook at anytime. if you think the game is going to be that close(.5 pt) find another game. if it was a great thing for the players, the books wouldn't offer this prop bet. the books offer it because its profitable for them.

If at pinny or the like, the line is -8 -102 or less or even + go to -7.5. All teams coming from behind work the score and the 2 pt conversion to get to down 8 to be down one score only. Someone posted the numbers and 8 to -7.5 is just behind 7-6.5 and 3 to -2.5 and 3.5 to 3 for making a difference.

Your poll options don't give the correct answer

I put yes,,,, but the truth for me personally is the ONLY time I EVER buy the hook is when I feel its a Low scored game, (2 exceptional Defensive teams) and this occurs with NFL only, and probably 3 times in a season,,,

And the correct answer is????

-Coach LT, is that only with a spread of 7? Do you ever do it with 3, 10, 14?

-Dub, I plan on doing some of that too. I adjust MLB totals alot to get more of a payout.

Thanks for the responses so far.
