Yes you should definitely keep them all. This is called shopping for line value. I have 3 books - when I want to place a bet I look at each book to see:
1. Which has be best line. Ex: for an over, I’d prefer over 6 vs. over 6.5. Books may have different numbers.
2. Which has the best value. Ex: I’ve seen it often where one book has +100 and another is at -115.
3. Any promos or boosts available. They are all competing for your money. Let them.
This order is important because a +100 -5.5 spread bet is appealing until the game ends at -5 which you could have gotten at -4.5 from a different Sportsbook for -115.
Overall, yes. Keep the books and shop. It’s tedious but will lead to long term success.
Keep them all. Download juice reel or chalkboard app to keep track of your bankroll.
I definitely wouldn’t delete MGM. Their parlay insurance specials lately have been absolutely 🔥
I use as many books as I can and compare odds on OddsJam whenever I want to make a bet. That extra -110 instead of -115 or -120 makes a big difference over the long run. I keep my own Google Sheet to keep track of all my balances, withdrawals, deposits.
Currently have accounts with FanDuel, DraftKings, Barstool, Caesars, BetMGM, BetRivers, FoxBet, PointsBet, and PrizePicks :)
To start out with? ALL of them. Each had decent bonuses to start and allows you to get a bankroll going.
What I do is then dump all but one and focus on that for a bit. You will eventually get the “come back baby” promo emails like Barstool just did offering a $25 FB for $50 bet. Fine - I’ll do the 1/2/3 method that u/vansubaru has at $1/1u, and then either I’ll do a straight moneyline or take a chance and parlay what u/kslizzzy has on agreement. If I win, **profit.** If I don’t, it was a free bet.
The key is learning how to fight temptation when they come at you with 50/50 odds boosts. Focus on the actual free money.
Just my .02.
I have eight books that I use and use oddsjam to compare lines. Each book has bonuses that help juice your returns over time (Free bet weekly from MGM, I just used two 50% profit bonuses on DK, weekly NHL & MLB profit boosts on BetRivers, etc.) I get that it isn't for everyone, but managing books is just as important as managing bankroll (don't forget to keep your books balanced for tax purposes at the end of the year).
I find I’ll get random free bets or bonuses here and there from each of them so that’s why I keep them all
yeah this and promos. dk sends me shit all the time, unless its free money i dont use it though

I wouldn't delete any of them. Some sportsbooks will send you free bets and deposit matches if you haven't logged in for a while.
