Is this something the RR pick zone would want?

[jwunderdog]

Pinnacle has a fair amount of opinionated lines that I am starting to track in HOckey, Is this something that would be useful in the Pick Zone? The reason I am doing it is Pinnacle is the only book I have not beaten, In fact for the year I am down thousands in hockey with them but up a little over all hockey. The majority of time (meaning over 50%) that they have the best line on a game outside their juice I lose.In other words I am starting to bet their opinions at other books.If it is of use to others I will post the one or two most opinionated lines they have.

i have never beaten them either

been using their late hockey <moves> for some time

 

Me neither.

I think the MF's are VERY good when they express and opinion...

 

i noticed that in the past and thats why i dont use them for hockey. i use them for baseball and very rarely for hoops.

Has anyone ever actually bet using their lines? Example today Tampa's over underat Pinnacle is -103/-107, most other places have -115/-105, pinnacle is looking for over money,so I would go out and find the best under money and bet it. Has anyone done this over a long period of time?

 

I spot played it in baseball for a while, doing what I call "half scalps" where you bet the one side, leave the Pinnacle side alone.

Did fine on it as I remember, but was only making $50 bets, think I got more involved in the Rx when Joe left and got side tracked.

peep,

I am going to try to do it for hockey, same thing though $50 a play and see what happens. My problem is on the weekends I don't have much time to hang around a computer to do the work but will try.

 

Add me to the list that can't beat Pin. That's why I'm worried about my Dartmouth play tonight. They have it at 7' and it's 7 almost everywhere else. It would be perfect if you would like to add it to the pick zone.

I will add the Hockey but not baskets, in baskets you have to figure out both line movements and odds, plus I think all the books mess around with #s in baskets a lot more then hockey,see Cal/UCLA.
