guys, I might not make it through the night...Comment -
it is working now and it is written on their main page. sorry for you guys! ;-)Comment -
I agree imgv, they left right in the middle of the playoffs, they could have done this after the super bowl at least. That is what makes no sense to me. I think there is a buyout somewhere I feel, that is the only thing I could figure.Comment -
It would seem that Matchbook is likely to get a lot more action as there really isn't a better place for the money to flood to.Comment -
Guys,
As much as this news sucks, I'm looking for the next step. Does that mean that the other A books, such as thegreek, wsex, 5dimes, etc..., are next? Is this gonna be a domino effect?Comment -
and, if I might post odds:
US threatened to cut their balls off: -411
A buyout is in the works: +371Comment -
im crying in my desk chairComment -
Wheel I don't know what to think here, I think that they may send all their players to another book because of extradion reasons I think, I think the Netherlands extradities people back to the US to face charges maybe?Comment -
good point tblues: new odds:
US threated to do bad things to them: -446
Buyout: +406Comment -
As long as Mansion and Matchbooks here plus couple others, everything in the world would be fine.
I'm not worry at all, this is business, as long as demand are there, supply will come.Comment -
Wheel,
Your so funny! I would put it at -600 though.Comment -
What does this mean for the other books?Comment -
It could be possible that Pinnacles owners could be setting up a new site somewhere else in a few weeks too? It could be in some other country!Comment -
tblues:I once did standup comedy. I was ignored off the stage. sigh.
I don't think this is about relocation or a new site. I've seen their patent for their line movement system. If they open up a new site with the same patented system the US govt. might just go after them.Comment -

i got the same crap
what a sad dayComment -
the best book in the business has closed it's doors
is the end near? i would think it has to be.
i had pinny ranked A+ but i think they are F now. although if the US government somehow forced them then i don't know what you can say. need help from the SBR team to advise us.Comment -
Heres the latest email I just received from pinnacle right now:
I just followed up with this question:
Heres the answer I just got back from them:I'm curious what might have brought this decision on so fast. It was my understanding that the new laws didn't go into effect til July.
Please advise with any further info you might have on this subject.
Details are still a bit sketchy. Hopefully John or Bill will know more in the morning, and can shed some light on this subject a bit better in the morning.Dear Sir,
If we have any new information regarding this issue, we will notify you accordingly.
We certainly appreciate your support of our site.

Yeah, it's obvious to the whole world that you have a retard as president. You should read what the Danish opposition says about him. It's truly funny... one of them called him a "maniac".Comment -
Not all of us voted for him slash. I know I sure didn't..
Honestly I'm shocked that he won a second term thought us Stupid Americans learned our lesson the first time around.Comment -
The first time, he didn't win the vote, so it's hard to blame you guys for his first election. The re-election is a different story.Comment -
Its all over nowComment -
Really bad news! I am sorry for all US bettors.
Comment -
i won $100 there last night so perhaps they saw that and decided "we'd better exit the market, he's getting hot"Comment -
what do you think, is it safe to play there now that billions of dollars will be withdrawn?Comment -
It's been 5 hours since the announcement and still nothing's posted on the SBR main page; it's probably time to put something there.Comment -
Unreal, I feel for u guys. Time to go to matchbook or another exchange maybe. Bush is a joke! The world was a better place before he was President.Comment -
I would not worry about Pinnacle, pjesnik24; they would not make this kind of move if they couldn't handle the run it will cause.
For now, I'd agree with The Genius, Matchbook is my go-to primary book while I sort out the implications here.Comment -
I talked to Pinnacle 5 minutes ago but no new info. They are pulling out effective immediatelyComment -
Thought today is April 1st. Oh well.Comment
