Default Best book for parlays

I'm in a "parlay pool" with some friends of mine.

I thought that parlays would use 10 cent lines that pinnacle used for parlays (-104, -107, etc.) However, when i click on "parlays", everything is -110.

Is there a better site for parlays? I was telling them that we could get -105 in general, paying about 6.4:1 on 3 teamers. But it looks like 5.96:1 is the best they offer.

thanks

Got something in the mail today from a site called Payoffs Plus advertising 6.5-1 on 3 team parlays and good teaser odds. I HAVE NOT checked them out yet but I'm sure someone here has. Website is www.betpop.com if you're interested.

2 teams - 2.8/1 (13/5)
3 teams - 6.4/1 (6/1)
4 teams - 13.5/1 (10/1)
5 teams - 27.4/1 (25/1)
6 teams - 54/1 (40/1)

Payoffs Plus aka BetPop is rated "C+" by Sportsbook Review.

they advertise a "70% Sign Up Bonus" but it can't obviously be a straight cash deal. no specifications for the bonus terms, maximum bonus amount or rollover are listed on the site (at least at first glance) which can sometimes be a red flag, but SBR hasn't reported anything shady so far. I guess check with customer support for more details.

here are the parlay charts. 2 and 3 team payoffs are pretty good but then it seems to go downhill.

overall the place looks to be a bit low budget. their claims of being a "Discount Sports Book" like Charles Schwab are a bit over the top. also if you click on the Live Chat link, it takes you to a page "AVAILABLE SOON".
