Betting with pinnacle

nycballer · #1 09-07-2007, 03:43 PM

so i know pinnacle does -104 style pricing on their nfl games and maybe im not the first to come up with this but what does everyone think of a strategy to just bet games on other sites where the odds are at least 5% off the pinnacle line in ur favor?

For example, this week pinnacle has houston -3 -112 while sportsbook has it at -105. If u assume pinnacle is never wrong, then u have a 3% edge betting this at sportsbook.

also, what are some sites that take US customers besides sportsbook and bodog?

betjamaica and wsex are both very good and preferable to bodog

betonline has reduced juice accounts for -105 sides for NFL/NCAA

5dimes has been good IME

Bookmaker has really stepped it up of late

nycballer, make sure you're using the no-vigorish price (aka mid-market price). If you have no idea what I'm talking about then read my article here.

ditto. You may want to check out intertops as well.

Is BetJamaica affiliated with any other books? I dont have an account with them yet but there is a signup bonus of deposit $300, receive a free play of $50 and also receive $135 in cash on top of that. Thinking about moving my money out of 5Dimes completely and might move a little of it into this.

Is it worth it?

I'm Canadian so not sure about the takes US players part but my main book is Bowman's (now part of bet365) and I have been with them for about 10 years with no issues and great service.

The Greek and 5Dimes are also good. Them plus Pinnacle are what I'd use.

Brendan,
more BetJamaica info

on Fridays from 6 PM to midnight EST, they run reduced juice (-105) for NFL and NCAAF sides and totals

just a little more to sweeten the offer

jamaica moves their lines very quickly with the market. the bonus is decent, but greek will have more plays in the long run IMO (choosing just between these two affiliated sites).
