I'm thinking of taking Miami PK,-1/2 (+101) 1st half at 5 dimes.

My question is what does it mean? Can I lose on a tie?

I believe it means that half your bet is on pk and half is on -1/2..so if it is tied at halftime you would lose half your bet and push the other half

Wait, the Line has Pk & -1/2 ???

Never heard of that in 30+ years of gambling !

Unless you mean, you see Pk at one place and -1/2 at another ?? or the line is jumping from Pk to -1/2

Well then, It still giving you a Choice as to what you want to take.

Sooooo......

Easy Answer to the question.

Pk means that if it lands on a Tie at Half, it's a Push

and if you take the Minus 1/2 and it's all tied at half, You Lose.

very Simple ...unless I'm missing something.
