    Big difference between BM and Pinnacle, even 5 dimes. On a thousand dollar play that is a significant amount of money.

    Bookmaker usually has pretty crappy (high juice) futures, that's why their line is lower.

    nothing new, Pinny is gold standard while other 2 are sub par books that get whacked off because they are the best US players have as far as choices; these odds just drive home this point even more.

    This is probably true. Although even at +710 I wouldn't take VCU to win it all, how could they possibly with it all?

    Not new, probably playing long before you were born? Just thought people would like to see the difference because it is a huge difference. Not only between P and other American allowed books but also between 5 dimes and bm.

    Just a point of interest.

    Bookmaker and Bodog always have very juiced future lines. Not surprising.
