    USA sports betting legality

    I wonder how that can possibly be that USA citizens cannot legally place any bets outside Las Vegas Nevada and lots of A+ rated sport books are operating welcoming USA player however the best site pinnacle does not accept USA players. If they obey to the federal laws why the others still accepting the USA players somewhere it doesn't make sense to me.

    People in USA still betting on sports so what is the deal pinnacle did?? The largest betting market is no longer available for them. No offense guys but none of the other A+ rated sport books even close to pinnacle and no matter what everyone says. I reviewed all the other websites rated above A and come on do you really think that they are better than pinnacle? High limits and lowest juice and never cut you out after winning big money.

    Operators of offshore books can be arrested if they set foot in the US.
    Clearly most of those in Costa Rica etc have no desire to visit the US.
    Owners of sites like Pinnacle which comply with the ban probably have assets and family in the US.

    Yes to both and in Pinnacle's case, that's where they also reside.

    So people in the US do not bet in pinnacle or that local illegal bookies take some action at pinnacle or websites looking like pinnacle over the phone or some other way because I have to believe that USA citizens aren't staying out of the action of sports betting with high stakes.
