Hi Andrew


Different sportsbooks seem to be better for different sports.

Tennis
Pinnacle, Multibet, are the best by far

NFL
Canbet Pinnacle and Multibet

-------
I use Centrebet but have little turnover as their tennis lines are very low $1.88 for evens, but occasionaly they offer top odds on a fav. They move their NFL lines a lot so if you monitor them you can occassionally get .5 point or $1.94 on something

SPortingbet is a total waste of time for tennis as they only do the majors and put up their lines really late. Their NFL lines are too low. $1.90. I am thinking of dumping them.

STan James and Ladbrokes put up early lines on tennis which suits me as I can catch them early. Due to low volume on their sites, you can sometimes catch them after prices start to drop. Ladbrokes is totally useless for NFL ($1.83 line). STan James seems to keep its lines on NFL at $1.91 and act independently. I got Carolina at 3.5 start today.

If you do NFL you must have Canbet $1.935 lines. I am finding that I am doing most of my tennis betting at Multibet lately. Multibet do $1.92 NFL lines but they move with the market.

Pinnacle seems to be the market mover. I have opened an account but haven't sent off any money. THey want a scanned image of both sides of a credit card which I am reluctant to do. Does anybody have an account with Pinnacle and are you worried about the scanned credit card details??
