Which book actually has the best number?

Everyone claims the best odds. Almost nobody counts. Every time the board checks a price, one book is paying more than the others, and this page keeps the tally across every league we cover.

Counted from every pregame price check the board took on every league on the board, Aug 14 to Aug 19. A "check" is one moment we compared every book on one side of one market; the book paying the most that moment gets the count. Only books the board polls can appear here. This window grows as more games settle.

Why the gap is the whole bet

The difference between the best number and the worst one on the same bet is usually a few cents of price. Take −110 when −105 was sitting at another book and you have handed back a chunk of your edge before the game starts. Do it every day and the gap is the difference between a winning season and a losing one.

In the app, every pick carries this page as a live ladder: each book’s current price on that exact bet, best number first, your own book on top. Chat with Big Mike › Or see today’s board ›
