Default PinnacleSports finally paid me my money, where should I sign up now that is similar?

Hey guys, what's up?

PinnacleSports finally paid me my money yesterday. So now I'll need to deposit my bankroll at another place. It's too bad they had to shut down because they were pretty cool and I was just getting settled into the sportsbook. Is there another sportsbook online that is similar to PinnacleSports that I could go? I would like to get a recommendation of who SBR.com deals with in case I have to get help collecting. I also wanted to know if you guys use your real information when signing up?

First of good to see you get your money.

There is no place even close to Pinnacle. That is just a reality that we all have to accept.

I would recommend another A+ book. This is not the time to stray off the top tier. BetCRIS would be our top recommendation. Also BetJamica is excellent. Try a few A+'s and get a feel for what you feel the best at.

You absolutley need to use your real information. I can`t think of any legitimate reason not to and sportsbooks don`t like being scammed. If they ask you to prove any of the info you`ve given them and you cannnot, you may have a problem.

Give Betjamica a shot...very solid. Cris is solid as well. Although their customer service can't even do the most basic calculations I've found.

SBR gave Matchbook a "B"

Does this mean you recommend not using Matchbook?

Zippo, all due respect, you should keep your money in your pocket.

If the last few days with Pinnacle freaked you out as much as your posts indicate, you are better off sitting out the next few months,

Greek or Jamaica would be my personal preference.

Not a big Cris fan, but they're solid.

Depends on what you are looking for...The Pig is good with -108 and A-, backed by Legenz. Cascade -105, or Matchbook for low juice.

Early lines and 100% safe = Cris and Greek.
