Best in the world, just wish CRIS would become more surfer friendly like Pinny and Greek.

HuskerFan1 · Jan 6, 2007

they cease to amaze me...with the reduced juice they have clearly distanced themselves from the rest by a wide margin imo...the site is very easy to navigate...its never down for me...they are incredible....

the gaval goat prop they had up last month was probably the most unique bet ive ever seen....

ivyconniver · Jan 6, 2007

pinny, hands down the best book out there in every aspect

TTinCO · Jan 6, 2007

Their live betting is far from the best...I got shut out on u49.5 through 47.5 about 10 times in the 1st half.

HuskerFan1 · Jan 6, 2007

its funny bc books pay to advertise on these sports forums to attract new customers...pinny doesnt even need to pay any site to advertise...its a waste of money IMO....the WOM from the posters they generate is incredible...

TT i think wsex live betting is the best site for that type of stuff....especially for the pga golf...i love wsex golf coverage

BadCo · Jan 6, 2007

You would think that therx would just join Pinny's affaliate program as each are the big boys of said industry's.

For forums that hang banners for different books on affaliate percentage,Pinnacle is by far the bread winner for those forums.

randyrohm · Jan 6, 2007

Pinnacle has established themselves as a book that I need, not a book that needs me. They have not rested on their hype. They continue to get better and without a doubt are the yardstick for offshore sportsbooks.

Fantastic Four
RENO, Nev. - 1/6/2007
www.pbatour.com

Four bowlers with a combined 95 Denny’s PBA Tour titles will take the lanes Sunday to duke it out for the title in the 2007 H&R Block Classic at the National Bowling Stadium.

All-time Denny’s PBA Tour titles leader Walter Ray Williams Jr., who won his record-breaking 42nd career title in the 2006-07 season-opening Dydo Japan Cup, defeated amateur Patrick Flynn III, four-games-to-one, Saturday to advance to his third championship round of the season. Flynn (Caldwell, Idaho) was looking to become the first amateur to advance to a championship round in a standard Tour event.

Williams (Ocala, Fla.) will face the top seed from qualifying, 13-time titlist Jason Couch (Clermont, Fla.) who defeated Brian Kretzer (Dayton, Ohio), 4-1. Couch finished match play with a 12-1 record and will be making his first TV appearance of the season after winning two titles last season.

Also advancing to his first championship round this season was Patrick Allen (Wesley Chapel, Fla.) who finished match play with a perfect 12-0 record. The 2004-05 PBA Player of the Year, who won two titles in 2005-06, will look to become just the second bowler in Tour history to go 14-0 in winning a title. Norm Duke became the first in this season’s Lake County Indiana Classic.

Allen, who made a career-high six TV appearances last season, advanced to his first this season with a 4-0 sweep of Chris Loschetter (Avon, Ohio). He credited a ball change to Ebonite’s Angular One as his key to victory Saturday.

“I was just trying to get my ball to read the lanes sooner,” Allen said. “The lanes were a lot tighter today than they had been all week. They played like there was a lot more oil so I needed to get a ball that would hook earlier.”

Allen will face PBA Hall of Famer Pete Weber (St. Ann, Mo.), who will be looking for his second title of the season and the 34th of his career which would tie him for third on the all-time titles list with Mark Roth. Weber defeated Ryan Shafer (Horseheads, N.Y.), 4-2.

The final four will bowl for the $25,000 top prize and an exemption for the 2007-08 season Sunday live on ESPN at 10 a.m. PST at The National Bowling Stadium.

They need to revise their software so the confirmation screen asks if you will accept the altered line/juice. Going back and forth at half time and when the lines come out and are being hit is ridiculous.

Not for TT since they don't change the line, only the juice.

ElJefe · Jan 6, 2007

No question they are the best. They have anything and everything to wager on and with reduced vig. One free payout a month and payouts are processed fast.

The only improvement they could make is marketing themselves more, but as has been said, they are so good they don't need to do it. Would be nice to have a Pinnacle hat or shirt to wear around, but I understand.

HuskerFan1 · Jan 6, 2007

this guys post should be hung at the top of this forum for the next year...he said it as best as it can be said....I NEED Pinnacle...they dont need me...EVERY sportsbook should adopt this saying as their slogan (the industry as a whole would be much better off fwiw)...its 100% true too...i need them...they dont need me...

el jefe...i went to a bar tonight (sick bc its a shitty chain place) FULL of jets fans bc she lives 5miles from gillette...and this jets fan is behind me talking how he needs seattle to win by 3 and i turn around say say...whats your line and he says 2...the game lands 1 and i say...ya i had 2.5...it sucks bc PINNACLE had -1 at higher juice.....i dont know this guy from a hole in the wall and there i am saying how pinny had seattle -1 (i then lead in to how who could have guessed it woulda landed on 1 or 2 and he agrees)...before he left he cautioned me into making sure i get my money outta those shaky books (i told him i like scalp bonus' against pinny)..lololol

crazy...

Kabbagecough · Jan 7, 2007

I especially like to see lines at Pinnacle on things like the Booker Literature Prize and chess matches (not that I have any opinion whatsoever). Give me Kramnik plus a pawn!

D2bets · Jan 7, 2007

So who's going to satrt handicapping bowlers? :suomi:

GrandMasterB · Jan 7, 2007

I grabbed some Weber at +376.

agree, you often get the " no go" message 5 or more times, give 10 seconds or option to take new price.

So what, they made a line on bowling or whatever it is ?

Where's their poker ?

They are good, but not perfect !

NT often down on their site, too.

Getting rejected after entering your password for the confirm is ABSOLUTE CRAP!! If you get your play in, you should have 15-30 seconds to enter your PW. It's brutal-almost as much as the "the line changed AFTER you made your wager" message

AGREE, 100%. I especially love those messages, after I've tried for about 4 straights times..... and the damn juice moves from +105 to -102. Feel like I'm Clint Eastwood and I need to out-draw their damn servers!
