As you can see for all outcomes odds are bigger on Stake, it means the juice is way smaller on Stake than on sportsbet, contrary to what you say.
Sportsbet I notice has just more or less the same odds as Stake, I guess because the providers are the same,,, but you generally see Stake put it up a little bit more on an equal basis BUT Sportsbet has a lot more boosts so if you use that the odds become better. Parlays are also for sure bigger on Sportsbet because you can add more legs and get 10%++ boosts plus free insurance from 5 legs and above.
I believe they both, like many others, use Pinnacle as the odds provider. Where you bet and how you bet definitely affects which bookie you'd end up using.
As Saint-loup points out, Sportsbet juice is a bit higher than most others who use Pinnacle. What I can tell is, Nitrogen is on the extreme end (highest juice) and Stake and FortuneJack are on the lower end, with Sportsbet in the middle.
But as leea-1334 notes, the other bonuses at Sportsbet more than outweigh the juice:
- I'm almost always betting only with boosts
- the random super boosts daily are 20% or more
- you get 2% more PER leg of a 5+ accumulator. And since my style relies heavily on longshot bets and accas, Sportsbet squeezes out a lot of value for me.
For really longshot ML bets, nothing beats Fairlay though. It's p2p so no juice (except the small commission which is negligible once you wager enough).
For example, using the same market Azerbaijan vs Serbia that Saint-loup uses, the odds right now are:
8.8 at Sportsbet:

https://fairlay.com/market/azerbaijan-vs-serbia/?referral=2130e697-c138-436a-a753-de8ca2436301With a Boost, Sportbet odds become 9.34 (roughly 6.5% boosts). Taking an underdog at SuperBoost is really incredible value at Sportsbet =)
So on Fairlay, that's a whopping 14% difference... and the gap in value gets even bigger as the odds climb. Which is why I almost solely choose Fairlay for really big underdogs like this. I'd regularly get 25/1 if betting against City last season, whereas Pinnacle would give max 20/1.
