Ok...I will not name ANY sportsbooks...but I would like to get some answers...Why would anyone wager @ -110 when they could wager @ -104 or -105?...I wager approx $100 per play which means EVERY bet I make cost me $5 or $6 extra when I bet @ -110 price vs the -104 or -105 #...This adds up to thousands over the year..No?

I like the lower juice but more importanly enjoy saving the $5 or $6 bucks as it eqates to an extra wager over a very short time frame. Stick it to `em dickie.

Only time to bet at -110 is if you're getting a better line (+7 v +6.5 etc..) than at the -105 books.

exactly, or if you can't get money to Pinny because you're waiting on somebody else to pay you, and have funds at CRIS, then you might pay -110, but in general always take the best price. I've occasionally done the above, but try not to.

different numbers are really a variation on getting the best line, betting the best line you can get is basic.

A different view that may be all wet...but over the standard -110 or -105 and on up you gain insurance either way you go...I see no reason to not buy points in the direction you feel the outcome will be...I still have not seen anybody here show me the advatages of longterm wagering at the usual price...if -150 versus -110 gives you an 80% advantage then I say why not...Im a casual bettor so I likely have no clue...I just like insurance...I have no idea how far up the advantage goes...

Buying the first few points is bad value, if they'd let me buy 20 at 10c each, I would.

How do Pinny's alternates compare to this?

I haven't really looked at them, so I'm not sure what the prices are like.

Nothing up presently.

Pinny know what they're doing. There's generally no value on those.
