Pinnacle Sportsbook Leader In Wagering?

Hey Boys,

I have often heard that the pinnacle sportsbook is the leader in sports wagering with their sharp odds & best odds compared to any other book. With that said, I have heard through the grapevine that QUITE a few people actually base their wagers on what the pinnacle lines are.

Has anyone ever done that before? Have you heard stories of people doing that? IF so, what is their success rate?

Pinny is solid for openers but the sharpest closing numers are at Grande.

LCC--

you can use any line you want as point of reference

Yes, most people does that

I always use the Vegas Opening Lines and state it when I post my stats.

I think the Opening Line is the most important...and the money moves the line afterwards which I don't care for--unless there's a lineup change, injury, etc.
