Las Vegas Sportsbook Lines compared to Offshore books

[dynamite140]

Does anyone know what online sportsbook would the typical sportsbook in Vegas have lines that are similar? For example, for baseball matchbook is the best for getting the best odds. Then you have Bookmaker and the greek who uses 20 cent lines and books like BetJamaica who get better with 10 cent lines. Are the vegas books lines similar to bookmaker? They cannot be worst can they?

Also, for nba and nfl games, is the spread usually -110 on the spread or do they juice it like they do online and do they juice it even more? For example, a game might have Jets at Chargers with the Jets +3 in an online book for -120 and Chargers -3 for +100. Do vegas sportsbook sometimes make the +3 for the Jets into -140 sometimes?

You got it...everything is -110. Props and futures they got the rape meter on full blast compared to most offshores.

When I go to Vegas I still end up putting in my bets offshore. 10% and 20 cent lines are hard to beat

Vegas lines are very similar to approx 75% of offshore books nowadays

Look at line service and you shall see

Vegas lines may not be as good as most offshore books, but many people are willing to pay a premium for a "real" cashout instead of a virtual one. To most people betting $100 a game, the difference between a -110 and -105 line is negligible. To the guy betting $1,000 a game...yeah, the reduced juice does make a difference.

Until he goes to take it out. Or until the offshore book cuts him off. Not usually a problem getting paid in Nevada. Although one of the smaller books I use has a sign that says payouts over 20k might have to wait for the next banking day to be paid.

I check these lines everyday and except for a matchbook pinny and sometimes 5 dimes the lines at the M casino in Vegas are just as good as offshore.
