How big is Pinnacle ?

Doug · Dec 15, 2004

Are they the largest book in the world, or close ? Small books, or locals, do they lay excess off at Pinny. Can Vegas lay off with offshores ?

I think in pure volume, Pinny must be near the top. If they had a 100k limit, could you bet that amount, then re-bet after giving them a chance to move line, not my situation.

Where else would you go for huge wager limits , and reduced juice ?

Can you bet CBB at -102 for $200, then re-bet, 5-dimes style ?

Does anyone know if they have an 800 phone number? If not -- any phone number?

Dante · Dec 15, 2004

Doug I would say they are pretty big but good question...not sure how big there call cneter is

Whoson..They do not give out there number you will have to email them for it...

Pinnacle operates with much less overhead than one would think. They do not give away the farm so to say and by acting this way, they afford us the nice prices.

As for how big, I think they have a 2 bath facility. LOL

I would say some others are probably bigger in terms of players. I would say a place like WWTS or Bowmans have more customers

The biggest reason that I joined Pinnacle --other than reduced vig. is that they don't PLAY the BONUS GAME. Maybe, I'm way off base here, but that to me is a sign that they have their priorities in the right direction.

Now--I'm a very small player and I also like the fact that you can bet very small amounts.

On the negative side, I don't like a minimum of a $500. for no Neteller.

A phone number should be listed for emergencies.

your post will be deleted. They have asked that we do not release that # on this site because pinnacle has asked that it not be given.

Whoson1st · Dec 15, 2004

WorldRunner Are you a moderator here too?

I sent them an email and it was replied too: that they were forwarding it to the Helm dept. (Whatever that is)

Have a nice day, Gents.

Whoson, Worldrunner is not a moderator here but...Pinny has asked that we not publish there number in the main forums....They should give it to you if you email them

thanks and have a great day

I would say WSEX and The Greek are bigger.

BettingProphets · Dec 15, 2004

Wsex may have more players but not the greek

I'm not really asking about number of players, more like number of dollars !

one 50k bettor is way more than 100 $100 bettors.

The question was directed at volume of dollars, not players.

Fishhead · Dec 15, 2004

Speacking strictly on volume, this is probably the largest sportsbook in the world.............

WWW.BETFAIR.COM

Doug · Dec 15, 2004

but not USA friendly, most here are USA customers.

Sorry, was just trying to help out. I honestly am not even sure how I got it. Was in my cell phone, so I figured if I had it, anyone can have it.

In terms of volume Betfair is by far the biggest though their numbers are exaturated by the fact they account $1000 in matched bets when $500 is matched between 2 people.

They are great site but their position is almost monopoly status in the exchange world which is very worrying. Their nearest competitors Betdaq are slow in making progress whilst sportingoptions is now bust.

Their commission rates are the highest around - their new commission scheme having an evil 15% Weekly decay on commission points but no one can seem to challenge them.

If Betfair turned round tomorrow and said 7% flat rate commission they wouldn't lose too much trade which is a scary thought - let's hope the likes of mansion can pull their socks up.

jjgold · Dec 15, 2004

I would say on a given NBA side maybe they get 40-60k action

Doug · Dec 15, 2004

What's Pinny get ?

Just letting you know that they don't want their number published here... That's all. Wasn't saying that I was going to delete it...just that it has been done in the past several times.

Pinnacle has a phone number posted on their site, although it's not a toll free number. I've used it.
