I use 5dimes faithfully, but during this current football season, there were a few game lines locked in that wouldn't allow me to buy any points. A friend uses heritage and says he's never had that problem. This has got me wondering, are certain sites better than others for a certain sport? Appreciate any and all input.

sites like heritage and its sister wagerweb def offer a lot of lines for a game in all sports. i see bovada has decent variety in lines too. even betonline and its sister sportsbetting offer a lot of lines for a game.
you should always have multiple books to line shop and to also have a backup in case you ever have an issue with one and can't place bets when you need toComment -
I find Pinnacle has the best odds, higher then most sites, but they have a very poor live betting sections compared to other sites, I think each site has it benefits, and it is hard to say which is the best, top qualityComment -
i prefer sites with a very easy platform where i can get my bet in quickly. i hate having to type my password in each time to place a bet.Comment -
The only thing I don't like about heritage, they don't number the games.Comment -
Number for each game, for example, 671 Nebraska at 672 IndianaComment -
The reality is most of the major sportsbooks (offshore and stateside) have a bunch of positives particular to them and negatives. Heritage offers a lot of lines and are super fast to pay and also generally good customer service but they do limit fast and if you take reduced juice you basically forfeit your right to participate in any other promotions they run.
BOL opens lines for College Football for US facing major offshores, most of the season 2-3 hours before the competition. The LowVig skin is reduced juice BOL so I mostly use them for CFB but they also have virtually no customer service to speak of and very limited on props
5D offers a bazillion different markets but their payouts make me want to rip my eyes out
Bookmaker is the big dog but you've got to pay the full -110
Bovada is a soft rec book where you can get some good prices and great for arbing but they also watch you like a hawk so the fun doesn't last long
etc etc - there's always a "but"
anyway for me: 5Dimes good for teasers and NBA moneylines, fight moneylines and variety of player props, exotics
LowVig for CFB
Pinny/PS3838 usually cheapest place to buy half points on NFL games if you do that
Heritage best for reduced juice NBA sides/totals
Bovada best for really soft player props pricesComment
