Pinnacle

I've gotten sick of Pro-line and I am giving online sportsbooks a try.

Could someone give me the overview of how Pinnacle works and/or some quick tips for someone new like me to Pinnacle.

Thanks.

Pinnacle will be years ahead better than proline. The site goes wonky (slow loading, sometimes down for a couple of minutes) from time to time which can be annoying but other than that I have no complaints.

Like for example right now I go to look at NHL odds (OT included) and they are all offline. Is this normal?

And say if I take the Detroit Lions -1, the odds are 1.901.. does that mean I times 1.901 by my wager (say $10) which means I win 19.01?

I keep hearing how good Pinnacle sports is yet they still have no lines up for NHL except for Parlays. Does anyone have an answer as to why? Is it always like this?

I was hoping to bet on Boston but the odds were never available..

Is Pinnacle crappy for hockey? Cause it's my main sport besides football.

One more question. Does OT included include shootout wins or just overtime?

Thanks? I'm guessing it's just OT but I just wanted to know for sure as Proline is OT or SO when you pick a team by 1.

If you aren't going to help then don't post. Me wanting to clarify what I am getting into before I wager real money has nothing to do with my ability to bet sports.
