Is it worth it to buy the hook for the Vikes from +3, +110 to +3.5 -110?

I never buy the hook to make a push a winner......I only buy to make a loser a push.......if it were 2.5 i would buy it, but not 3....thats just my opinion

Although now that i see it, if you can buy the hook and get it at -110, thats what you normally pay anyway....might be worth it.

Thanks bigwill. That's what I was thinking -110 is the "normal vig" so it is like the book is offering +3.5.

Now I have to determine if I want to take the Vikes. I am an Eagles hater (being a Giants fan), so I am possibly thinking emotionally. Also, not crazy about Jackson at QB for Vikes.

Thanks again.

I'm going back and forth with this pick.............either the Vikes + or the over...............The qb scares the sh*t out of mine and turnovers might = points.

If I do take the Vikes..............I'm gonna buy as many points as I can (just one...they'll let me).

+3 and +110 seems like they are absolutely BEGGING you to take it...a lot of good cappers on this board are on Minny, but I don't I can't put money on them with Jackson at QB. I unloaded on Philly. I did throw a small amount on a prop bet though...

First player to score a touchdown...Tarvaris Jackson +1200

Depending on how the BAL/MIA game ends (Over/Under), I will go the other way. This game goes Over, I will go Under w/the PHI/MIN game. Game goes Under, I will go Over in the next game.

I did the same thing. Minny reminds me too much the same as Mia. One dimensional with no deep threat.

I know it seems like they want me to take the bait, but I would be more comfortable with Philly if they were playing outdoors.

Personally going to dabble on your prop.

Its a long shot, but seems almost like a 50/50 bet once they get down close to the goal line....either Taylor or jackson
