    You can't compare these two.

    If you're betting/gambling -> Pinnacle
    If you're trading -> Betfair

    Why not just use both? Pinnacle is the leader but betfair has plenty of value...

    I don't know about Betfair, but on MB you can usually get better odds than Pinny..ofc only once the market settled in some.
    Pinny is the leader and best book overall, but there is no reason to compare them to exchanges where you can save a little more money. If you bet *early* lines, Pinny easily beats them cos there will be no offers made yet on exchanges.
    Stone old topic, smart people use ALL good shops that fit them.
