Only use 2 or 3 95% of the time? Does that tell you something? Yes it tells me you only need 3 books.

JJGOLD, you gotta chase more bonuses. It's a pain in the ass and barely worth it, but that doesn't stop most of us.

Slacker I am a straight bettor only and never once collected a bonus. I do not beleive in them. If most of you analyzed your bets I would bet 90% of your plays are at the same 3 books.

sometimes having that fifth books helps you with that extra half point going your way on a big game...definitely worth it to have more than a couple...

Analyzing...
My top 3 books this MLB season...
72% of my total action.
Here's the real shocker...
Pinnacle: 4th place.

Mansion got almost twice as much action from me as the next closest book.
Matchbook, WSEX, and Pinnacle were all in the same neighborhood.
I won the most, by far, at Pinnacle and did the worst at Matchbook. For the second year in a row I got very little action in at Canbet, but when they did have the best line, the bet lost at a staggering percentage. Maybe we need to start talking about the 'Canbet Lean'!

They sure do.
I originally thought their limits were $2500 on MLB sides which was a little low. After I realized that you could bet bet multiple times on the same side, they became a great MLB book for me.
