How do you compare opening and closing lines?

[Pocket Passer]

I am trying to capitalize on line movements... Meaning I look for a line to move hard (3+ points) one way or another, and get the inflated number.

So my question is, which book do I use to compare the opening line? I use sbrodds and have to select one book to list the opening line. I currently selected bodog as that is the one I bet with.

Any thoughts?

Pinnacle is always a good book to start with
dont use bodog though

Why not use bodog?

[rfr3sh]

They deal dual lines, so sometimes the line they offer is off market by a point or so

ok, so set pinncale as my opening book and compare it to BoDog throughout the day?

[rfr3sh]

well you can do that for a start but I think they will limit you after a while if you bet the square lines, or change to the other set of lines

I would line up pinny,greek,matchbook,bookmaker...you want too look at the sharp books...remember matchbook is an exchange.....pinny seems to have the most volitility.....I saw a game No. Texas...move from -114 to -123 one minute before game time last week...watch for those big late moves....and watch to see if the greek agrees with pinny...they are slow to move but usually to -115
