Re: Pinnacle Pulse 9/13
You can usually refer to Pinnacle as having "the market price" for a game, so they don't care if you bet at other places if you get a bad number. In fact, Pinnacle makes a good amount of money placing wagers at other books!

Re: Pinnacle Pulse 9/13
I think very few people know this report even exists. I don't think this affects much at all and as rjp said, they make money betting at other books as well.
For example, mansion let 5000 people wager a no risk $1000 bet on the Steelers in week 1. All mansion has to do is offset it by betting Miami with other sportsbooks and they come out even. I can tell you they were hoping Pittsburgh won that game. They come out even because they win their Miami bets at the other books but they gain a whole bunch of new customers.

I've scalped around 20 bets with Pinnacle this year (I'm looking forward to football!) and they have come up as 50/50 between Pinnacle and the other books, but this a larger sample does Pinnacle come out ahead? Are they setting up their lines to have an adverse affect on other books? [/ QUOTE ] When a scalp exists, Pinnacle is almost always making money and the other book has a bad line. I do about 10 scalps a day at Pinnacle, at lose an average of 6-7% of my total volume.

I took it to mean even, as in financially the result didn't matter. [/ QUOTE ] Yes. This is why I meant....or at least that is what I would have done if I were running it. Even was probably a bad word as they still have the choice of how much to "insure". The gain was tons of new customers.

Absolutely, if they hedged they were praying for a Steelers cover.

Could you make more by just not taking the Pinny line or would it crucify your ROR? Lori
