pk and +0.5?? what the hell does this mean?

Hi All,

 

I’m a total soccer noob, can anyone explain to me how the  “pk and +.5” work?  I cant find a thread on it..

 

Mon 6/11		England		pk and +0.5 -121
09:00 AM		France		pk and -0.5 +114

 

If I went with England, what are the scenarios where I would win and lose?

 

 

Thanks, Gents!

pk = draw is a push - england wins you win at line given.
+.5 is england gets a half a goal meaning you win if they tie or win

same goes for france on the reverse side.

so with the pk a draw pushes hence heavier juice for france and with ML or -.5 they need to win by a goal. for -1 they need to win by more then a goal as a 1 goal win would be a push.

Just like any spread in any other sport.

how is this different than a pk?  why bother adding the +0.5?

if you wager $120 to win 100 on England pk, +.5 (also known as +.25, THEN, half of your bet is on the pickem, and half of your bet is on the +.5 (also known at NOT TO LOSE)

oh wait, so with a TIE, then England cashes but France loses?

thanks bakemcbride. 

+.5 costs more than a pk.

Holland +1 should say -550...sorry, I was typing fast

If France and England draw, you will win half your bet if you are on England, and you will lose half your bet if you are on France.
