I wrote Pinnacle the letter at the bottom and here is their response:


Dear Pinnacle Sports Client,

If you are resident in a different country, you will be required to submit proof of residency, which corresponds to your Banking Information. We will also be blocking all U.S. internet access once all outstanding US customer withdrawal requests have been honored and you will not be able to wager from the United States.

Please scan the information and forward to us and we will pass the information and your request to Management.


Regards,


Customer Service department
Pinnacle Sports

My account # is ...62. I have relatives that live outside of the United States that I share residences with, can I change the address on my account to one of my addresses outside of the United States to avoid having to close my account?
Thanks,

Appears monitoring the PINNY DYNAMIC LINE CHANGES will not be an option for US CITIZENS.

THAT HURTS!

I think they will. If the owner is that worried, he's going to do everything in his power to show he doesn't want US action.

How does satellite internet work?

It would seem it would not be US based.

To a certain extent, you may be right.

The guys that are getting into pinnacle and making the lines move arent going to be affected by this nonsense...

You could've went 0-4 by yourself. What do you need them for?

Joking aside, their lines are slow as fuck now.

dynamic lines???

Please someone explain this "dynamic lines" concept. Sounds like you're assuming Pinnacle has the winning side. Are you looking at the point spread, money line, or both? Thanks.

Anyone have long term records on this by sport?

Don't you need to be logged in to see them in real-time? Or is there a way around that?
