    Probably a dumb question but here goes ...

    Is it better to take a PK instead of the spread when you are betting on a dog play or even a favorite play. I know the difference in the spread affects the bottem line of the mney you make on a bet. I know PK stands for Pick Em and it should mean the bookies aren't really sure of what the line should be on a certain game.Can I get some takes on this please?

    PK means that the spread is 'zero'

    that is to say that Vegas does not see either team with am advantage
    in that particular event.

    all you do is pick the winner

    __

    so a pick 'em IS the spread, the only two options are the teams,
    the money line would be even.

    all good, GMT$,

    i wish you the best..

    if you lose, slow down. NEVER chase (radically increase wager following loss)
    if you win, take money down, and try to build it up again, be aware of impulses.
    NEVER make a single pick when under the influence of anything.

    and do not count money that is not in your hand. Anything can go wrong.
    Be wise and cautious. Understand that you are playing with adult fire.

    Good Luck

    oh– and don't bet on your team. Best to leave them out of it.
    That tends to be a blindspot for most people.
