Let's not kid ourselves, the easiest way to make money is not pinnacles way, the easiest way is the betandwin way, agressive ads to squares and other unaware people addicted to gambling, in media outlets aimed at the lower financial strata in particular, the less educated, less well off, and more desperate, very high vig, lots of stupid exotic bets (look at ladbrokes where they combine say goal scorers and exact scores and offer the average joe a bet seemingly made in heaven with actual vigs close to 30%), a high odds offer now and then to get more people in, maybe throw some bonuses around too, a calender with busty beauties via mail is welcome too.
You say betandwin (in fact they are the best for wrong odds :missingte ) but you can list also other 10-15 european book...they only have to cut the limits to the winners and with others 99% you list above they have their money.
For what you say abou the people not accustomed to the market of total goals it's right (i know people bettin everyday and who doesn't know this market have 1% instead of 5%) but not for the big amounts...who lay 15-20K couldn't know this difference (imo) and that's because i supposed some bookies have special fee to trade with BF
