Ok so I mostly use the following bookies for soccer: Pinny, SBObet and 188bet. All three have wide selection of soccer and reduced juice. There are no arbs whatsoever between these books so of course they must be monitoring each other in some way.
So there are two scenarios here:
1. When one of the books take a big bet they adjust their lines and the other bookies do the same. I don't think it's this one simply because I would not see pinnacle doing this, they seem to change their lines when THEY take big bets.
2. When ie. SBObet changes their lines the other books follow, and as long as the others are at same odds as SBObet they continue to take in bets without adjusting odds.
What do you think?
