got reply they were saying they cudnt contact me

seems tht small bets move the lines the game i bet from 10 pm till now gone from -108 to -114 for what is a regional game really

and that vandy game -116

seems if they dont offset risk directly they are pretty risk adverse

pinnacle fixed my problem up - there reason was couldnt contact me - well thats silly - i trade financial markets im always available

two thing that does worry me -

1. they seem risk averse every time you place a bet the line moves

2. they dont post a phone number that you can call immediately to resolve issues- they want it via email - i find this to be an extremely strange business practice for a bookmaker

Pinnacle is a class act. as for lines moving, doesnt matter if its a regional thing game or national, more than just you are wagering on it. I have bet the max limit on certain games, such as CFL, with a $500 limit, and yes the juice moves form maybe -108, to -113, but what do you expect? They want same amount of risk on both sides, thats their business. Plus, they have the smallest juice in the business, which is a nice plus to play with them as well.

kongen u know what i mean us toll free number

cdl well i place many wagers on same game - ie i put 250 then go back 150 250 etc etc and the line moves from say -101 -105 -109 -114 -118 which happened in baseball - i know its not me the only one dealing but a line cant be good for just 2 minutes and then readjusted - thats odd - besides they can lay off risk elsewhere or balance their book you dont just hammer the price out of line so noone bets again - im sure you see what im getting at
