    Which Books have the sharpest Lines these days?

    Is it still Pinny? Feel free to list by Sport.

    I think the Pinny line is still the gold standard but BOL and Heritage def sharp. Bovada sharp as a public gauge.

    Funny you guys should mention these because I was specifically wondering if BetOnline and Heritage are considered "sharper" than FanDuel and Draft Kings. So what's the verdict?

    Also, anyone have an idea on what the approximate time delay is on the SBR odds page? I'm pretty sure they aren't always current.

    I think that DK and FD actually have opinions on some games and although they don't go to the lengths that 5d used to, they offer some unique lines. I don't live in a wagering state so this is my view from afar. For offshore Jazz also offers some nice lines and low juice. I should actually play there more often but their interface is mid.

    FD and DK are not sharps on sides and totals. They're sharp at luring dummies into making stupid parlay and prop bets.

    Fair enough but you don't bet soccer. DK knows what's going on in soccer.

    DK is Euro owned not American owned. Maybe that explains the better soccer lines? IDK.

    But they pimped the 9-11 parlay of NY teams to Americans. Like they give a damn about 9-11.

    Just fishing for suckers. I find that a disgrace.

    BetOnline is sharper than Pinnacle? That's news to me. At everything, or just some things?

    Also, is it safe to assume that they are both sharper than DraftKings and FanDuel?

    How about Heritage? Where would you rank them? I always considered them one of the sharpest offshore Books.

    I appreciate the feedback.

    Betonline some things. They definitely have opinions.

    Betonline in baseball is sharper.
    NHL pinnacle.
    NBA about the same but I only bet sides.
    NFL I lean pinnacle especially with the alt lines
    Soccer pinnacle has way more markets but bol seems to have a good reach on smaller leagues.

    Heritage is good at live. I don't play pre game there so I can't comment on that part of there program.

    Yes also both are sharper then FD and dk because they moved quickly but onshore books don't always move at the bat of an eye and are right alot as well.

    I forgot to ask about player props. Which Books are considered the "sharpest" when it comes to player props?

    On a more specific note, I bet mostly offshoot sports like foreign basketball (the smaller the league, the better) and Heritage is almost impossibly on top of these games. I followed steam from Heritage in Czech hoops and was able to grab the original number on another site. Didn't even need to as they won by forty.

    BetMGM is as sharp as the dullest butter knife.
    Keeps losing as in how many bets? 1000's?
