You don't think a book realizes that a lot of people are going to buy the point, half point, whatever? They know youre going to do it, they want you to do it, you will not make more money in the long run buying points when the line is at an important number because you are not smarter than Vegas.
Obviously its easy for you to come in here bragging about how it would have made the difference because it was the first football of the season and everyone was watching it, but making broad statements based on one game makes you look like an idiot.

It depends on the price. If you can buy off the 3 for 20 cents and off the 7 for 10 cents, DO IT. Unfortunately, a lot (if not most) books now charge 25 cents to get off 3 and 15 cents off of 7, making it more of a case-by-case judgement call.

Buying off the 3 for 20 cents or off the 7 for 10 cents in NFL is +EV.
Other than that, I agree that all other point buying is pointless.

WELL I SEE ITS ROOKIE DAY!! The NFL line is @3 you buy down or up 1/2 point everytime. 10% compared to a win or push .
nickle player must go 1- 11 to lose buying points. 10% more with real books. 500 pays 600 thats 50 more .. PERIOD !!
-31/2 point down to 3 is no brainer.
buying 1/2 point up to 3 no brainer
tenn -21/2 as i posted to win , no brainer
look yoyo's ,you stick with your lame betting, push and be happy, lose cus yah got buff @ 21/2 and whine , i play to win... you dont get betting , you cant be helped but anyone who dont buy when yah on 3 31/2 21/2 etc. to elliminate a loss or push is freakin foolish and dont profit
my guess is the responces are from kids 20-25 yo living at moms firen' moms allowance smokin dope. losin cash on top of cash.
those of you in it to win it............ lets ride !!
PS. i COLLECTED 25 DIMES ON A CASH BET PRE-SEASON 3 DAYS AGO.. WHAT-CHU-DO?

for select situations I agree with buying points, but for the most part there is very little if any value.....
