    Anyone has bad / good experience with Pinnacle? like Payout....
    Anyone has bad / good experience with Pinnacle recently? like Payout, Restricted Limit....

    I'm from Canada. My favourite betting is Soccer - Asian Handicap. I used to have account with Bet365, but they restricted my bet max limit to only $10, which is very frucstrating... my normal bet amount is $200 each ... occasionally $500 and $1000. Therefore, I wanted to find a booker which doesn't put bet limit to me and with better odds and fast payout.

    Any recommendation?

    How long does it normally take for payout by Moneybookers or check? I saw some post saying that it took 4-6 weeks in January 2007... Does it change now?

    Much appreciated.

    actuary,

    I miss pinny more than some of the best girlfriends I've ever had (and trust me, that's quite a bit)...if I lived outside of the US, I'd have at least 75% of my bankroll with them...

        If you are betting on soccer I'd say the BEST place to do so is Betfair, second choice Canbet, third choice Pinnacle.

        Canadians are allowed to have accounts at all of these places.

        Get yourself setup with moneybookers and you can move money between those three with no problem.

          I"ve never been restricted at Pinny and a payout to Moneybookers has never taken more than 1 hour for me. I'm from Canada too. I've never taken a cheque from Pinny so I dont' know about that.

            Thanks for your reply. I have BetFair, which I like the way which I can trade with others. However, their odds for Asian Handicap (Soccer) is not very attractive some time and not many people like to lay on matches not belonging to 4 major soccer leagues)... personally, I like betting Brazil, Sweden, Norway, Japan.... which are not popular to most people.

            Thanks for your input. Much appreciated.

              I would say it takes 4-6 minutes now. Using both MB and NT.

                  I just wish I was able to play with them still. When they were allowing US action, that is where I did most of my betting. Just check the Pinnacle Review Here

                      Canbet is very good imo..no idea why you are laughing.
                      Betfair recently raised their comissions again, so i don´t care much about them.

                      Back to your question..Pinnacle is still the best option outside the U.S. (if not counting in exchanges like Matchbook).
                      You can´t go wrong with them.

                        Canbet is OK but not in the same league as Pinnacle.

                        My only gripe with Pinny are the props, are the lack there of. Their political props are all but gone but great book, great casino.

                          Concerning soccer, asian handicap, Canbet has become one of the best books! Since a while they copy their soccer odds from S-B-O-B-E-T that means they have the same odds but I guess many people here prefer to use them instead of the real asian books. Small disadvantages: odds come out later and they don't offer all bets, also live betting is missing.

                            canbet has great AH odds. I also do not understand that is so funny about that. Sometimes they have much better odds than pinnacle. I also like mansion88 and 188bet, try them out!

                              They certainly look interesting. However, are you sure they are safe?

                                Thanks for all your input. Just take a look on CanBet. The odds is ok, just don't have lots of league to pick. However, the bonus is reasonable, just wonder if Canbet is reliable or not.

                                For Matchbook, it is kind of confusing to read their odds for soccer betting.

                                Any input? much appreciated.

                                  I can say 188bet us safe, haven't had any fraud trans from them. Been with them for a month or two now and their service is fine except of course if there's a problem with the site.
