Default Pinnacle - Are they the best for soccer odds?

Hey, I want to join a new book for the new Football season in August. It's a lot harder than I thought. I have been given a lot of thought to pinnacle.

The bonuses offered by other sites are good , " Your first £20 - $50 bet will be matched with a free bet" etc but it's not essential.

I see places like VIPSPORTS that are offering bonuses on every depoit and a loyalty program. To me, bonuses are a lot of hassle (rollover etc) so as Pinnacle states on their site, I would be better off going for the better price?!

What is very important to me is that the sportsbook can offer a lot of markets on all Premier Leauge/ Champs league FA Cup/ Carling cup etc. I don't just want the match odds, I would like ,

Under, Overs, Correct score, scorecasts etc. Do pinnacle offer these with the better odds they bang on about? I would check myself but the prem league match odds haven't been posted

Also, are they quick to post the lines?

Cheers

If they say it, then I tend to believe them.

Get The Best Online Soccer Betting Odds
At the Pinnacle Sportsbook you'll find the best online soccer betting odds available on the internet. You can get the best odds for all the leagues and competitions that matter most to soccer bettors. At PinnacleSports.com we typically price two-way soccer betting markets to 1.96/1.96 (which is 102%) offering up to 60% better odds than a traditional sportsbook. PinnacleSports.com’s low margin soccer pricing has also been applied to the new live soccer betting markets with 1.95/1.95 style pricing on Asian Handicap live betting and in-running Totals.

Pinnacle is definitely one of the best to have for premier league, but they do not have too many markets.

They offer match odds, asian handicap (their biggest market!), over/under number of goals, but that is pretty much it. Sometimes they have one or two more markets, but they never have correct score and other multi-choice markets.

However, their odds on the markets they do have, especially asian handicap, are so good I would recommend Pinnacle anyway, then get a second bookie for more obscure markets.

Cheers for the info, The General/Fredrik. The only real downside I can see with Pinnacle, is the software. To me, it seems a little outdated? It's not a big deal. Anyone agree?

I'll probably end up going with them due to their odds.

There Asian Handicap lines are brilliant. It's a pity they don't offer First Goalscorer Markets, I'm ususally pretty good at predicting the FG for premier league games and Irish International games.

well, for AH bets I would recommend to have pinnacle as one of your 4-5 bookies including 12bet, sbobet, 188bet, mansion88
for other markets maybe unibet and expekt as they do not limit that much. others who limit are bet365, paddypower, willhill, stanjames, ladbrokes and any other british/irish bookie

Tell me about it. I'm limited by Bet365. I'm up on Paddypower but yet to be limited. I don't like WillHil. I recently joined stanjames but they aren't great. Ladbrokes are terrible also.

Thanks for the info.

Pinnacle is only for Asians, and sometimes other bokkies like Stanjames, Sports1 or asians bookmakers had better odds.

For those markets, I will for the first time in my life recommend betfair. Betfair market does not have the 10-15% margin on those type of bets that other bookies have. So even with betfairs 5% mega commission they are still best at the above.
