Are you shocked when you win at Pinnacle ?

Doug · Nov 25, 2006

I kind of am ! I never win there, and when I do hit them, I can get the money real quick for only $15. One can make a very strong case for Pinny being the best all around book, for sure !

I don't WD from there anymore on the rare occasions i go
on a mini win streak, knowing it will end up back there
in a few days anyway. Only deposits no WDs ;

Pinny is so sharp, its disgusting !

Labeeb · Nov 25, 2006

Not shocked at all. Just have to be playing the soft lines.

Dubpoet · Nov 25, 2006

In Nba I cant lose at pinny and cant win at 5 dimes. Te rest of the year is opposite,

bigbet1234 · Nov 25, 2006

Shocked, Yes.

But if I was as sharp as they are, I would be betting, and not booking.

Pinny is like the Hotel California you can check in any time you wont but you can never leave!!

Kornholio · Nov 25, 2006

I am down huge at Pinny. I keep reloading Pinny every week or so but I am up small on the year overall, if that tells you anything. Maybe I should just not play it if they have the best price.

Since MATCHBOOK came along, the plays I make at PINNY are down VERY DRASTICALLY.............perhaps by as much as 90%.

No surprise there ! MB starts where Pinny ends, but room for both. If Pinny is -104/-104 on something, then you need -102/-102 for equivelant at MB, so real close there.

Advantage Pinny with a lot more options, exchanges can only try to take over the main things like major sports sides and totals.

An exchange gets very efficient with larger moneylines, you can get something down to -1000/ +990, no book can do that.

never have any problems winning there compared to other books, I've won my original deposit many times over.

Have you ever thought about betting the "other" side when you make your bets? Seems to me if continually lost at a site, I'd wise up real quick and start betting the other side~! NO? Or are you like those that I interviewed at GA who said they were afraid they'd go on a winning streak! :thumbsup:

Some of those bets are of course middle shots and scalps. I am wary when Pinny has the best number on something, but they often do.

I'd be in big trouble if Pinny were my only out, but I have about 15 books I use at a time, and only care about the net result, and that has to be long-term, not daily or weekly.

AlwaysKeen · Nov 27, 2006

pinny's awesome...

Chairman · Nov 27, 2006

This place is hard to win, I do not know why.

Mansion is the best.

But, I will make them pay me all back soon, starting this week.

It's hard to make a great line on everything. There is a defense to that, higher vig... like -115 on both sides. I love options Greek offers like betting Q3 and Q4 of NBA at the half, or H2 team totals. Real great winter book, but useless for bases ( like CRIS). Greek is absolutely a top 5 book.
