Pinnacle doesn't honor their lines on Don Best

[jerseyjoe]

I called Pinnacle to bet last nights fight. On Don Best they had last nights fight posted De La Hoya -235 Mosley +215. When I called the wagering department because their internet was down the wagering clerk told me the line was De La Hoya -225 Mosley +195. I told the clerk on the phone that on Don Best they had a different line posted. The clerk then proceeded to tell me she didn't know anything about the Don Best screen and the lines she quoted were their lines. This has happened to me on numerous occasions at Pinnacle. Obviously I was going to bet Mosley but I didn't when they quoted me their "NEW" lines. This morning I withdrew all my funds from Pinnacle and will not be wagering there anymore. I'm tired of them not honoring their lines on the Don Best screen. It seems to me that Pinnacle has gotten too big for its britches.

Good for you for having the common sense to know when you are getting the shaft repeatedly to gather your funds and procede to another shop.

Pinny surcharges players that bet by phone.

If you're not happy with any store, bet elsewhere.

I would like to see Ashcroft shut down Donbest.

I WOULD LIKE TO SEE ASHCROFT HAVE YOU KILLED.

Last time I checked Pinnacle and DonBest were completely independent services.

Don Best updates their odds on boxing a little differently than the daily major sports. Someone simply forgot to make a line change on the screen, either on the Don Best side, or the Pinnacle person responsible for giving Don Best updates. This is not uncommon, especially on the OFF sports such as boxing, auto racing, golf, etc.

I'd like to see Ashcroft shut down ticket scalping. It's a sore on the ass of America. I've heard most ticketscalping is controlled by the Mafia and is the reason kids are turning to crack cocaine in California.

Don Best aint writing pinnacles action. Its a service that most of the time is on target but lots of times it aint. Instead of leaving pinnacle (who is a must out in anyones opinion)id save $550/month db subscription fee and look at pinnacles lines on their website.

Don Best is in trouble, losing customers

No need to attack a good friend of this site like that...

Thanks,

Pinnacle does not display their internet lines on Don Best...

The lines on Don Best are displayed for their Credit players and are not as favorable as when betting their internet lines...

On the other hand, if you were to have gone to OUR LIVE LINES, we do display Pinnacle's current INTERNET lines and NOT their phone lines...

Hope this helps some...
