MC,
In terms of value this is the #1 BOOK ON THE PLANET ...

but be careful, they're also the sharpest book (IMHO)

MC,
More often than not if the best price is at Pinnacle it's the losing side ...

... these guys know their stuff.

i don't know why they would suck you dry compared to another ..they have alternative lines..i like those.

They are pretty sharp though. But with all gambling, you have to be lucky.

I've never understood this mentality that Pinnacle will beat the pants off of you any more than any other book.

I mean, if I'm coming from Olympic having

76ers +5 -110
Pistons -5 -100

to Pinnacle having

76ers +5 -107
Pistons -5 -103

How is that bad for me in any way shape or form? The only thing I can think of is if you are that tempted by the -103 that you let the price sway you to the Pistons. There is nothing wrong with betting based on price, but geez when we are talking anything from -110 to +100 I don't think you should let it affect your picks that much.

So as long as you keep a straight head and bet whatever you would have bet at Olympic, what is the big deal?

Funk, obviously that's not an opinionated game at this stage (both price are the best by the nature of the low juice) ...

.. i was referring to when Pin lays something like

-6 +108
+6 -118

and the rest of the world has standard juice on the 6 (-110/-110) ...

I'm saying that in these cases more often than not the -6 +108 (while nice in theory) usually loses.

Point taken Lander. I hadn't really thought of it that way.

But you should theoretically be able to use it to your advantage. I mean, pinnacle is giving you a better peek at the steam by moving the moneylines like that without moving the spread till it gets to -120 or whatever.

That is if you trust it pinnacle that much go play +6 -110 at another book.

Funk,
I don't personally buy into having others determine my picks, but I know at least a few RX'ers & others have taken that strategy (and thusfar successfully) ...

... time will tell if it's a matter of coincedence & luck.

Pinnacle has to have good lines. They offer shorter moneylines than most places and so far have done very well.

Madcapper - Pinnacle is one of the best rated books out there. And a SAFE place to park your money.

Like the SHRINK asked you above: "what took you so long?"
