    It's definitely NOT 5dimes.

    Unless you want a handful of props copied from other books right before game time after the odds have sharpened up with tiny limits.

    Greek and Bodog are much better amongst the top rated books.

    I don't play at the Greek, so not sure about that. Will look into that one. I don't like Bodog at all though. Small selections. 5Dimes list some ridiculous ones though that nobody is going to play like such team -42.5 points/+42.5 points

    Agree with NOT 5 Dimes.

    Would say any of the Sportsbook.com group would be best.

    Do prop bets usually count toward rollover?

    I think that the OP meant Books that actually pay on props.

    Although 5D has the best variety, ABC (Jazz) has decent props/futures as well and with $500 limits on most anything.

    ABC copies from Greek after they've adjusted -- but they are only -110/-110 and I play a lot there. and they will often copy others on MNF/SNF

    One such prop is whether you'll get paid by SB.com:

    Yes +170

    NO -200

    Give me yes for the max.

    You know as well as I do they steal from 1% of the players and pay the rest.


    You will often find lines that off there too.

    Meant to be a joke. Who would bet the "No" at any price. Even if you win, you still ultimately lose..

    Wanted to bump this up (in lieu of starting a new topic), because I'm interested in this question as well and wanted to gather some more opinions.

    I'm looking to find out the sharpest book for props - From what I've gathered, the Greek seems to establish the market price that others copy. Is this still correct.

    Certain books like bodog, 5dimes, etc offer a wide variety of props, but are they as sharp as the Greek, or do they simply copy the line moves?

    Would the answer correlate with who has the highest limits on props?

    Don't think the Greek is all that sharp on Props either. I find Betphoenix prop lines are the tightest.
