If you bet on the Pistons, yes. JK, but seriously, how would you have lost $50?

I don't like to have to much in ONE book, so I try to start new accounts, but if they aren't accepting US and I put $50 in is there any chance to get it out?

yes of course they'll give it back.

but, i'm shocked they took it in the first place, unless you lied about your country of residence.

Togo is a country in Africa.

For future reference, try not take advice from randoms on message boards -- especially Ricky Steve. He was obviously joking, nevertheless you should be more careful.

Just email pinnacle, they'll send you your money back.

That "status" under your name is based on your # of posts. It doesn't matter if you have 1,000 posts of nonsense.

If he didn't know Togo was a country, then I'm not terribly concerned that that $50 was going to be churned into a big bankroll anyway.

Default idiots

you guys do realize pinnacle can track your ip and your mac address, so they know where and when you loggin in to your fake tongo account and what bets you made while you're pretending to be in tongo. i think you were thinking about tongo...i am not sure there is a country called togo. if there is such a country, where would they go?

i have to admit, this is the first time i've seen an american idiot trying to open a pinnacle account since pinnacle stop taking us bettors.

btw, pistons did won tonight. i am rooting for the suns though.

ok, correction, just the ip address.

congo. togo joined with congo back when the dutch set up a offshore bank in bongo. tongo is a city state near the first dutch bank in bongo. in bongo, gambling, prositution, and drugs are all legal. it is a fun place whre you can bet and get wasted. i can get you visas there, send me a PM if you want one. it is pretty cheap. five dimes per passport, just make the ** out to a guy in lima peru, and send me the 10 digit control code.

even if tacomax deposit for you. how are you going to make the bets? PM tacomax everytime you want to bet?

why don't you bet $200 on the bulls to win the series. you have a better chance winning that bet than ever see your money again.

I don't think they keep that close an eye on the IP. I travel to and from the US quite a bit and I"ve never had trouble with Pinny accepting my bets from where ever I am in the US. Even using T-mobile in a Mac Donalds works.

i think you're a liar. or you don't bet much in the states. try to make a 10k bet while you're at mcdonalds. your account will be shut down within 48 hours.
