How bad has Pinnacle hurt the competiton since they started taking horses and giving 7% rebate and also paying full track odds .I wonder when Ehorse will counter with a better deal they had to thierself for quite along time

What Pinnacle is offering is good - no question - but only because you guys in the US have been screwed by the books for so long in terms of US racing does it seem amazing.

What Betfair is offering for US racing for win bets is way superior and the TradingSports platform is also very good.

I could see the exchanges changing their terms in competition with each other but really the 7% back at Pinnacle doesn't affect their win bet business - it is still a a way better offering and fixed odds as well.

If I were betting on US horses (i bet mainly on UK horses) - i would use the exchanges for all my win bets and Pinnacle for all exotics - best of both worlds.

TCbets offers a 7% rebate and full track odds since as long as I can remember...Ehorse will have to rethink their marketing or see their customers walk away...

The differance between Pinnacle and TCBETS pinnacle starts dollar one at TCBETS you to get7% at 20000 starts at 21/2 and goes up each week with how much bet only paid once a week no full track odds very slow scoring Ehorse made all the money and had the market cornerd

Do any offshore shops book their own horses or does it all go into a hub?

ellenwisdom · Jan 21, 2004

ehorse did not go into hub they mightnow. I have been betting Pinnacle I bet some small handle tracks have monitor never seen money go in to pools maybe because I have been losing it might be differant if I was winning
