Well please reassure me that this has no credibility. I have a significant amount of money in mt pinnacle account......I'm phucking worried. E-mails get sent back as delivery failure when they worked a week ago.

It's happened before. I've had an account at Pinnacle for nearly a decade. On at least three occasions that I recall, they were down for significant periods of time, sometimes up to 24 hours.

I'm not sure why back then, and I'm not sure why it has happened this time. But if I were to ever start going into a panic because some twats have joined SBR to announce that the sky is falling, then my next step would be to cease online gambling forever.

I'm not worried in the slightest. I've given up on placing wagers tonight. My goals now are to switch gears and surprise the missus, see if she wants to watch a movie tonight or something; Maybe get a blowjob towards the midnight hour. Then tomorrow I'll check in on the situation and see what's the latest.....

Meanwhile, if it helps me fit in with many others here: "The End is Nigh!!!"

Have a great evening.....

no offense but the more you say, the dumber you sound.
Is there a way to block someone on here?

Oddsman3127 · 02-26-10, 08:13 PM

but at least they could have contact SBR, like they did 4 years ago. I found in players talk a thread, I bumped it up, how they put a notice here about being down for maintence, 4 years ago. And today no msg to SBR.

Oddsman3127 · 02-26-10, 08:15 PM

if I'm not mistaken I think for a month or 2 they no longer have a sponser banner at the page here, like on this page when you scroll up, I used to see thier banner but not more for a long time now.

Reports that servers for Pinny located in the Northeast US are down to bad weather

SolidDala · 02-26-10, 08:16 PM

Offline due to power outage, not the only company out, Cyberluck game server is out as well.

Oddsman3127 · 02-26-10, 08:26 PM

their servers in the US are down? I don't get it really, cause I know they are not located anywhere near the US. And they are not even open for US customers. But don't pay attention to me... I'm not really a smart guy with regards to computers and stuff like that.

i just tried www cyber luck . com and it does work. it's a site from the same area where Pinna is from.

ronald · 02-26-10, 08:33 PM

If I'm not mistaken, Cyberluck is the entity that provides the gaming license to Pinnacle.

SolidDala · 02-26-10, 08:35 PM

I read it in covers forum. And I don't get the statement 'servers in us down'. Their located in Netherlands, and why would a betting company have servers in US?

taxinuts · 02-26-10, 08:37 PM

Thread at pocketfives has info about a power outage affecting Cake Poker and other gaming sites:

I could understand all the worries if it were a bad book. Cmon, its Pinnacle. I loved playing there. To bad they kicked all the U.S residents out. Money is very safe at Pinnacle. They will be here long after were all gone. Get those panties out of your crack Christos.

I mentioned this in John's thread today, and he said that because pinny left the "north american market" there was no sbr response because no one was asking (apparently missing the 12 threads, and the large land masses north and south of the usa).

What an idiotic answer. I do not know anyone in the North American market that does not have an account there.

Oddsman3127 · 02-26-10, 08:40 PM

i found here few threads about how in the past they been down for many hours even, planned and not planned, they always came back up. One thing I can say personally, they totally didn't act like someone in trouble, I withdrew from them just 2 days ago. They definitly not acting like someone in trouble. And we are reading here some more supportive msgs that it just a tech. issue.

JoeVig · 02-26-10, 08:48 PM

I thought April 1 was a month away still.

i can connect to thier poker site which is running ( I had it install on my comp so it's not really a website, I guess that's why it's not affected). But there's no way to access sports from there, and even if it was possible they not letting Candians to access the poker as far as I understand. But that's unrelated to today's down. I just got a msg that poker is not available to my area. But sports as we all know is available to canadians. The point I'm trying to make that it seems they OK, and it's just tech. issue.

Thanks Oddsman. There was a major power outage in the hosting facility that houses Pinnacle Sports servers. There are a number of people in Curacao working to fix the problem and to restore access to the website.

pinnacle sports downtime update
The hosting facility in Curacao that houses pinnacle sports (SBR rating A+) servers has experienced a major power outage that has caused Pinnacle's downtime today. The expectation is that Pinnacle will be back online by the morninhttp://www.sportsbookreview.com/sbr/pinnacle_sports/g.

The retard who created this is a phucking slug.

This is the most logical explanation but it is rather amazing that a company that would take in the volume of money that pinnacle must take in doesn't have a backup backup backup plan to stay online in this day and age.

DimOK · 02-26-10, 11:38 PM

Still i wonder, why site which is located in same IP subnet (so most probably at same provider, i doubt Antilles have several internet providers) http://www.curacao-egaming.com/ is working... and what about phillipines backup server www188.pinnaclesports.com ?

Exactly 13 Hrs passed since their went offline, really, why their secondary server offline too? Modern ISP are not so vulnerable, not to fix power problems in more than half a day, i don't want to, but it seems to be a right time to start panic, really.

Ok, here they proove that provider in curacao does have problems, and explain why another site is being up, I will not panic for twelve hours more

On the other hand, if they were actually trying to escape with our money, why would they even bother giving excuses?

Pointbet just disappeared one day, it's not too difficult, and certainly no need for excuses.
