    You've got to hand it to Pinny, though - they offer good prices on even the most obscure events. And they're offering it with a 10 cent spread when regular books dish out a 20c cent spread on NFL.

    Yeah, the biggest difference are their odds for props compared to other books who often employ ridiculous 30c-40c lines for prop bets.

    I've bet several of the props there in the past, mostly with award shows (Golden Globes, Academy Awards, Emmys, etc.) Also, bet their team performance props once in awhile.

    Friend of mine is from the states, but lives in Canada and makes it a hobby to follow politics up there. Am going to run Pinnacle odds by him and see if he has any angles, if I bet will pass on that info here after.

    I will be betting it. Should be an interesting election. Liberals have been in power for the last 12 or 13 years and it looks like the Conservatives will win a majority this time.

    The live betting should also be interesting.

    I'm from Canada and the pinnacle odds were very interesting, especially because they were much different than the site electionprediction.org (a site that attempts to predict election results with about 85% accuracy). We'll see who wins: pinnacle vs electionprediction.org. Preliminary results favor electionprediction.

    I bet NBA props there almost everyday since they started offering them, the most obscure thing I remember was betting on housing prices all over the country, I won a max bet on Alexandria, Va over whatever the price was.
