# 10. Shopping for best line

Lines can vary based on the sportsbook, because different books have different clienteles. As a result, one book may post the Cavs -8 while another has -7.5.\
\
Having access to more than one sportsbook allows you to shop for the best line. Getting an [extra half-point](https://www.actionnetwork.com/how-to-bet-on-sports/nfl/nfl-betting-half-point-spreads) might not seem like a huge deal, but it adds up over the long haul and increases your chances of winning.\
Our [live odds pages](https://www.actionnetwork.com/odds) will automatically surface the best line for every game.
