    This.
    Pinnacle was or still in the process of getting a UK license ...but one of the stipulation of the license is knowing who the owners are and that lies at the heart of the problem

    Like I said man pinnacle must not make a lot of money off UK customers

    I think their marketing to different parts of the world now although have no idea why they even offer US sports anymore

    Pay attention because pinnacle is gradually widening juice
