    Pinnacle closing accounts

    I am thinking of depositing with them. I know there one of the best but I would still like to know if there are stories about them closing or limiting accounts?

    Their official position is that they don't limit players for winning. There are a few stories of people being limited, but they are the most pro-friendly sportsbook on the planet. They are the best ever; you will love it there.

    Never heard of closing accounts, but I heard that they can limit you in smaller leagues.

    Why were they limited? Profiting a bit too much?

    Same here. They are the gold standard. When I had to leave I was .

    Now that I remember, I had a futures bet years ago about if/when they would capture or kill bin Laden, and it may have been at Pinny. Unclaimed funds. Hahaha! Only talking like $5.

    close this thread , this all Fantasy.
    Like Justin said one time -if you beat pinnacle badly , the worst that can happen is that they will offer you a job. There are no limits there.

    Never heard of anyone getting limited at Pinnacle. Fair play to the person that does, they must have won a lot.

    http://www.sportsbookreview.com/forum/sportsbook...in7-pinny.html worth a read fwiw..

    A couple of more credible guys have been on here to say how they are not allowed to bet live, limited on certain things like tennis and so on.. Not sure if I believe it but I do believe what happened to Justin7. He goes on to say in post #12 that they restricted him from parlays and teasers alltogether.

    I agree that it's another Attention Whore title.

    The title should be "Does Pinnacle close accounts for winning?".

    But that won't get much attention, as people already know the answer is NO.

    So the Attention Whore method is employed - post a misleading title to attract hits.


    nick86 - I'd still like to know WHY you posed the question.

    How would a "Yes, they close accounts for winning" answer have affected your betting?

    What are you retarded or something? The reason for posting the question is clearly stated in the original post. If you feel like I'm only trying to gain attention then it might help not to post in this thread and perhaps fu*k off?
