    Pinnacle Limits.

    Is it fair to assume that the limits reflect how efficient the market is and therefore how difficult it is to make a profit? If so, spent a few minutes writing them down. All amounts in pound Sterling. The 70k for NFL was from memory, so was the Premiership, Serie A and La Liga. All numbers are '000s. Prem is short for the top s*ccer division in the country

    Market--Handicap--MoneyLine--Over/Under

    NFL--70--??--??
    Champions League Final--50--17--35
    NBA--43--17--17
    MLB--17--25-8.5
    Premiership/Serie A/La Liga--18--9--9
    English Championship--7--3.5--3.5
    Swedish Prem--5--2.5--2.5
    Norwegian Prem--5--2.5--2.5
    NHL--4.5--8.5--4.5
    English Division One--3.5--1.75--1.75
    Dutch Prem--3.5--1.75--1.75
    ATP French Open R2--3.5--8.5--2.5
    French Prem--2.5--0.8--1.75
    Russian Prem--2.5--1.25--1.25
    English Division Two--1.75--0.85--0.85
    Super 15 rugby--2.5--2.5--n/a
    Euro Handball--0.45--0.2--0.45
    Euro Volleyball--0.45--0.2--0.45

    Maybe someone finds that interesting. I don't quite understand why the NHL has such low limits compared to even Scandinavian s*ccer. Does this mean that I might have a chance of +ROI betting on the NHL if I do my homework?

    The efficiency of the market is one parameter but there are others.

    Of what I´ve understood Pinnacle is mostly about getting balanced action meaning the limits probably rather reflects how much action could be expected for each league.

    I definitely wouldn´t draw the conclusion that the efficiency of lines can be based on the Pinnacle limits.

    I disagree I think the sports with lower limits are the ones that you have a better chance at winning long term
