[sammyb]

[bigboydan]

I just spoke to Karena and she tells me that there is no time frame at all at this time in regards to when there website will be back up.

I know Pinnacle doesn't like there number publicized at all, however you guys can find it here

[Santo]

Yes I was just told that the IT department are working as fast as possible.

[bigboydan]

The last time I seen Pinnacle's site go down in this type of manner. All the chalk cashed!

[sammyb]

what does "all the chalk cashed" mean

[bigboydan]

It means all the favorites win in bases today. I'm just hoping it's not a trend that continues today is all.

[keiko]

Anyone knows when PIN will come back?

[Dark Horse]

That's funny BBD.

It means that all the favorites won, sammyb. The origin of the term is quite interesting:

Chalk - When a horse is the favorite -- or has the most money bet on it -- that horse is termed the "chalk." Interestingly, this term comes from the pre-computer era of the bookie. When a bookie recorded bets on a blackboard, the odds would change over and over as more and more people bet on the favorite. The horse became known as the "chalk" because the horse's name would disappear in chalk dust as the bookie constantly erased and lowered the horse's odds.

[bigboydan]

Whats odd is that the SBRlines feed seems from Pinnacle appears to be working just fine.

[Stumpage]

Up here now (Here being Toronto area).....

[Mark Shark]

still down in Australia

[vanman]

Every now and then this happens with pinny some people can get the site others can`t,they claim it`s connectivity issue`s which partly explains what is happening but this has been happening too often,you would of thought that they would have sorted this out period by now.

[Mark Shark]

is everyone else getting it? Or is it still down?

[20Four7]

I was getting it but now appears to be down again.

[Mark Shark]

It is still down

[sammyb]

what the fcuk if this was anyone else but Pinnacle I would be worried
Still down 20 hrs now
Bill or someone could you investigate please

[bigboydan]

Sammy,

I called earlier today and was told that the site was down, and they had no clue when it would be back up today. I don't feel that answer really acceptable to be honest with you. Anyhow, the best advice I can give people right now is to call them to place wagers.

[sammyb]

So you believe that it is OK for a website to be down for a whole day?????

[bigboydan]

So you believe that it is OK for a website to be down for a whole day?????
