True. I did find value through the closing odds on Pinnacle several times, but found more value on the softs more often which is why I retract my statement.
I really really doubt this (like tomeaton82). Pinnacle closing lines are generally regarded as the most accurate/efficient -
sports bettors usually try to get CLV (closing line value), which is the advantage they got over the closing line (for example, 1.99 on Liverpool ML when closing line was 1.91). By the time the market closes, there is a ton of volume that has shaped the line from sharps on both sides. From
Pinnacle itself, their soccer closing line with margin removed had an R-squared of 0.997, which is almost perfect correlation (1).
I really doubt you know what you're talking about.
Like I said, I am no expert when it comes to value betting(Newbie) or sports betting, but I did feel like I placed several value bets on more than 1 occasion through the closing odds(live bets) on Pinnacle which is simply my opinion.
Honestly, I have earned far more through arbing and accumulator betting and don't really care too much about value betting though I am improving my knowledge related to it thanks to folks like you guys on the internet.
