pinnacle ever coming back for usa customers?!

[earl]

been a couple of years now, and most all the other books are still open for usa business. pinnacle is a top notch book. would be a very nice option for usa players. any input by pinnacle management welcomed.

[BAGIANT]

If you try hard enough you can find them

I thought about making a thread regarding this the other day & what the excuse is on why they haven't at least opened a sister-book almost identical.

I don't see what the excuse could be & should all of us from the U.S. show loyalty to those books who DO cater to the states?

 

[Boxer22]

There are some people I know who have gone to other countries to open bank accounts so that they could have a pinnacle account. Obviously they still live in the US but their addresses on their Pinnacle account are listed as overseas.

Well if that's the case, then wouldn't that be the easiest solution to all transfer methods, by us all just opening bank accounts out of the states, and transferring funds from our U.S. bank back & forth.

I'm sure the bank accounts can be open online or over the phone then by transferring the money......

I am not sure how it works really. I never really asked for details, but one of my friends who lives not to far from Mexico. Crossed the border opened a bank account and now swears by Pinnacle.

Opening new bank accounts isn't usually that easy, especially for non-nationals. Proof of address is often required, and it's not uncommon for accounts to have to be opened in person.

 

[FairWarning]

For the current players there, are the lines still as sharp on the college sports, without 95% of the US market?

 

[BostonBettor]

I don't know if this was rumour or not, but I remember at the time reading that a top guy if not the big boss man lived in the States, so he took Pinnacle off the US market so as not to get busted by the doj. This may be crap, but that's what I recall.

I'll never understand why so many of the British books caved in.

You will need a proxy also. But pinny did not lose a lot of the business they did not want to lose, if you get my drift.

i know there was an issue with IP's ....so you may need to spoof your IP also

That's very easy to do.

The main guy left the states years ago, before they opened pinny.

They are not stupid people. They knew they best way to not get fucked with was "CLOSE" for american POST UP

 

[red007]

i wish they were still available for US customers
fucking us govt

 

[anxietyattack]

Fucking US govt don't want us gamble but they will open the doors to the world to overcrowd the darn country. USA let in over 2 million people last year and that is more than all the countries in the world combined. Sorry i have to vent after being at the town pool yesterday for the first time in a long time and barely hearing any English spoken there. Makes me sick !
