    If you live in the US, you need to get a passport. Then go to Canada, purchase a UPS box, have a random bill sent to that box, and finally use that address when signing up for a pinny account.

    You would still need to prove your identity to pinnacle, which means you would need a fake Canadian id with your ups box as your address. That's a lot of hassle don't ya think.

    You do not need out of country photo id at pinny anymore.

    thanks for the info. i guess i probably won't be playing at pinny. does seem like a hassle. what is the best book for those of us in the u.s.? most options, reduced juice, and the like. thanks, again.

    Moneybookers.

    You also better hope the people at pinny don't frequent these forums and see a thread like this.

    I don't think Pinny cares. As long as they are not issuing account, receiving and/or sending money to/from a US address, they are abiding to US law.
