It's hard to even think of a group I would compare to Pin.

Mansion, I like getting + money by offering, for example yesternights Char/ LAL game. Line is 9 -104, I want Charlotte +9, so I offer it, the guy that takes Lakers gets -103 ( and pays 1% of his winning amount if he wins). I offered $300 of it, I collect $309, no fees, he would have got $297 return for his $309 risk.
Beats any book or half point promo, I'll take +9 +103, over +9.5 -110 anyday.
Hockey prices are insanely close, I can't even make a better offer when Mansion has -119/ +118 to Pinny's -125/ +115.
I've seen spreads like -335/ +333 fairly often.

If you are playing for more than entertainment, I think you need more than one. Ultimately it depends on what you bet.
If you bet halves, you should have Hollywood.
If you bet overnights, got to have Pinnacle. There is no competition for early value.
If you like a book that moves the number more often than the price, it's Cascade.
If you know you need at least two books and Mansion isn't your first choice, it will be your second.

matchbook

I sometimes can pck up some -105's, -108's and even money wagers at skybook with the free half point too...they'd be sixth on the list for me...

Sky is now useless to me, I do one bet a week there for RX contest purposes.
SBR Founder Join Date: 8/10/2005
This one I have to agree with. I only pick out teams I like that falls on the -105 or -107 with 1/2 point.Originally Posted by pags11
Else I look else where for reduced juice lines.
and yes skybook can be pretty useless without basketball.

Biggest problem is no free payout, not even one a month for $2500, that's minimum standard for me ! Sky has pretty much become "teats on a boar" book for me !Originally Posted by freebie
I've outgrown Skybook, good book for less experienced punters, they'll pay ya, I used to love Skybook, back when they were RIO. Great option for hoops with a punter that is intimidated by exchanges.
Skybook will fit a great many players, very honorable honest shop, with good CS, just not for me anymore.
Your money is fine there, I endorse them as a book, although they no longer suit me.

doug I completely agree with your assessment of skybook...I agree they should offer a once a month free payout...I'm going to do a free balance transfer, but it's still a pain in the ass...the free half point is cool, but no overnight lines and a lot of full juice isn't...I like Mike, the guy that runs it, but I understand what your saying about outgrowing it...still undecided if I will play with them next hoops season (definitely won't for football)...
