        Looks like you don't know much about ddos and protection against it, there are different types of such attacks, and if it is some kind of flood, the only thing that counts is provider bandwith (and quality of their admins). Both can be overpowered by huge amount of traffic, which is hundreds times bigger, than usual one.

        It is not pinnacle fault, that they are down, no one (again, NO ONE) could repel well-organized ddos attack. Current level of botnets allow to put offline literally any site on the net (well, probably except google which have thousands of servers in a lot of countries).

        So just be patient and let them do their work, they are suffering much more than you from this attack.

        Upd: the fact they were working for some subnets shows that they are started to cut active botnet ip-addresses. So if you can't access site from you provider - it is fault of you and other people who don't pay enough attention to what happening on their computer.

                Big attacks like this are hard to avoid
                Any book can get one

                  Yep they are pretty good,no downtime on any sites hosted and p or protected by them,there are several others but i guess that Pinny can't and doesnt like to have thier server on American soil and Prolexic as well as other leaders in that field are mostlya US based either at FLA or Texas.

                      Pinnacle sort of back up, but not offering live betting on the Lakers game due to all the site issues.

                            pinnacle being down today actually ended up saving me cash.

                                Nothing compares to pinny.

                                Won about $150 today.

                                Would have won about $180 if I had pinny prices and less lost juice.

                                Huge difference over a period of time.

                                Clicking submit on that book even hurt me.

                                  Down again completely... can't even get the direct IP links working. This is getting annoying as hell.

                                    shows how much everyone needs that book....yea they have downtime issues but it's still the best non-exchange book around. for all u guys saying your withdrawing when it's back up, where are you gonna go? pay 30 cents everywhere else? don't kid yourself.

                                        Luckily it's baseball season, lots of books offering 10 cent lines now. Won't be using pinny for the summer at least, **** 'em!

I mean if your gona have this kind of bullshit at least a call center so people can place their bets over the phone. I missed a play because it wasn't available at the other book I use.

                                                            SBR should look into this, NHL playoffs start tomorrow and its the last day of NBA. This book needs to step its game up and it needs to be downgraded.

Pinnacle has the best prices but having all your money in one place is just poor planning... And let's be honest here, the vast majority of people here are betting recreationally for small sums and are probably saving money by not betting. Pinnacle is losing a ton of money every hour the site is offline...
