Why short a put?

When you are buying into a put, you are already betting that the strike price will be lower? I don't understand why you would do this and not just do the call?
About Derivatives: what happens if i keep a security short by the time the stocks have halted? how they cash out? (cont) Filmstardust Jul 25, 10:14
Puts cash out the Monday after the opening weekend of the relevant movie, sometime after 4pm Pacific time. Roger More Jul 25, 11:03
Thanks, but i know that. What i don't know is when you have a put on short, what happens? (cont) Filmstardust Jul 25, 11:34
Yes, but it depends on whether the movie's OW makes the strike price. If it makes more than the strike price, the put will cash out at zero Roger More Jul 25, 11:55
Thanks for your time, excellent explanation. Very clear, that's what i needed to know :) {nm} Filmstardust Jul 25, 12:07
