Pinnacle for US Players

[dreamchaser]

When I go to the Pinnacle website, it states clearly that I'm blocked from registering because of my USA location. But then I saw a couple of the big handicapping services on Cappertek saying they could get me an account at Pinnacle even if I was in the US if I subscribed to their service. This intrigued me -- not their service ($2500/month) but the account at Pinnacle. Any thoughts?

About what?

[dreamchaser]

Getting an account at Pinnacle really appeals to me because:

1. I win and supposedly they don't cut off winners
2. High betting limits
3. Reduced juice odds

I know I can get 2 and 3 with other books but I sense it will only be a matter of time before they cut me off. Pinnacle seems like the way to go, for that reason. But I thought they simply weren't an option for a US player like me. A couple of these handicapper services made it sound like they are. Thoughts, anyone?

Don't know what sort of deal they have setup but you can try some of the better known agents and ask if they currently have a solution for you.

Bet-IBC, Premiumtradings, Samvo and Asianconnect88 are places to get started asking.

Situation changes for US players regularly so you need to check with them direct what they can do right now.

Any Brokers taking US residents right now? I asked AsianConnect88 and they said no U.S. players.

I asked AC88 about Americans and the answer was, 'we cannot accept USA based players but we do not ask for location for players who exclusively use bitcoin'.

Basically he was saying 'dont ask, dont tell'.

Another option is vipsportsbook.eu who offer Mollybet interface accounts, again with bitcoin only no ID is asked for.

Thanks good info.

Any US resident punter with any nouse has still been playing at Pinnacle ever since they "banned" US resident customers in 2007 without missing a beat when the ban was announced, playing at Pinnacle uninterrupted before and after the ban and still playing there now.

Any US resident punter that very naively and lazily just thought to themselves that it was inevitably over for them at Pinnacle after they announced the "ban" and therefore severely disadvantaged themselves by not availing themselves of betting at Pinnacle since 2007 and still aren't betting at Pinnacle now because of this "ban", then more fool them.

Ok?? Do you ever have anything useful to add to a discussion?

Lol.......all those words and I'm not even sure the guy strung together a complete sentence.

I always add extremely useful posts to every thread that I post in. Take this thread for example. You are obviously one of the extremely naive and lazy people that haven't bet with Pinnacle since 2007 because you thought you were "banned". I am simply pointing out that it wasn't a ban whatsoever and anybody with a bit of nouse has continued betting at Pinnacle uninterrupted ever since this ban.

So the extremely useful lesson that you need to learn from this is, don't take things you see or hear at face value, use a bit of nouse to see if there is a solution to a problem and think outside of the box. If you'd have done that, you wouldn't be scrabbling around almost 10 years down the line still looking for a way to bet at Pinnacle.

My post consisted of complete and coherent sentences that make absolutely perfect sense for anybody that can actually read.

"all those words". It's six lines you idiot. If that's just too much for you, you can always try to read it in bitesize chunks and take breaks in between if it's just too much for you to read in one go.

Being non-native English speaking, I had to look up the meaning of the word "nouse". So I did learn something. Thanks.

I treat my Pinny agent like gold!

[Natty68]

I have quite a few friends that gamble offshore and none of them has ever known Bookmaker to ditch someone for "winning too much." Some of these guys are pretty serious bettors.

[stevebets90]

Yeah I have heard of sites lowering limits like 5dimes lowered my max wager limit on props to $50

Cappertek

Stay away from cappertek, not an honest tracking service.
