Buying points

[jcurro]

What does a buying a point means? Saw it at betjam but doesn't know how it works.

if the line is minus seven and you want to make it minus one you will lay money to move the line , same for underdog you can make the plus seven into plus 10 , it depends on the book , The Greek will let you buy 10 points

It means you are risking a little more to move the line in your favor by 1 point.
