    Largest balance on Pinnacle?
    So apparently this guy has almost a million dollars on his Pinnacle account. You guys think he's legit? Even if it is legit, why would anyone be comfortable enough to leave a milli online? Is Pinnacle really that safe?

            Bronxer's account. He always covers his user names with red paint when he posts screen shots.

                      I doubt it is real, big gamblers there for the most part are betting on credit. At least guys who are moving money beyond what an actual gambler looking to make money would move. Akin to these rich business men who sit down in these big buy in poker games, just because they have the money and can look halfway decent doesnt mean they have a real clue at what theyre doing they just have more money than they know what to do with and like the action more than the money.

                      If you read what the guy is writing and his answers toquestions I doubt he won that much money there...

                      But when Pinnacle closed up in 07 and they had a run on their shop it took them about 3 weeks to get me a decent 6 figure total pay out on my accounts I had there.

                            I'll say it's real. Money in Pinnacle is as safe as a FDIC backed bank in the US.

                              Most of the big players with post up accounts don't deposit more than 20k. Kind of stupid leaving a big balance like that in a book that will give you no interest on that money.

                                    not the point.

                                    the point is why anyone would leave close to $1 million on a offshore book that isn't backed by any central bank

                                        Guys it's obviously a credit account given the 5 digit account number, so it is not a post-up account

                                        Secondly you need money to make money, so basically 90% of posts in this thread are square

                                        Some of you guys are fukkin clueless about what sharps are up to in this industry

                                                Thank you for doing this, my friends and I love the idea of sports betting, and I personally would like to get into it. Is there anything that you would recommend reading in order to learn a bit more about it?
                                                In the "steam play" example, are you saying you make money there if you put $100 on both sides?
                                                What do you think is the minimum bankroll that you should start out with? Do you have a minimum amount that you personally bet on each game?

                                                [–]advantagegambler[S] 3 points 3 months ago
                                                Sadly, most of the books suck. Sharp Sports Betting by "Stanford Wong" is the gold standard, and I wouldn't wipe my ass with that book. No one is interested in writing about this stuff, it seems.

                                                    I like how he called out Fezzik for the liar/scam artist he is. Fezzik can't not pifck his nose, therefore goes tout and continues to bury clients.

                                                        If people are naive enough to believe that ANY service has magical powers to be able to pick winning plays at an alarming rate,well then they deserve what they get.............

                                                                So you are going to be depositing/withdrawing everyday to make bets?

                                                                What interest? Take 20k to the bank and see what interest you get.
