Pinnacle software/website: What features do you like??
Some ASI sportsbook software (Pinnacle's platform) sportsbooks have asked us what they could do to customize their own website to make it better and more advanced. Off the top of my head I can come up with a few things just by looking at Pinnacle's but would like to pass this question to the board...
Maybe you play at one of these ASI books and notice something that one book is lacking? It can be anything to do with the actual web pages.

My two favorite features are the drop down boxes and the "Dynamic Lines Display"...
I would love to see books add these features...
BTW an ounce of some good weed as a comp would create "unconditional" loyalty from me!!!
Do not use that orange colour for lines that changed over 30 seconds ago. I see the red fine blue fine but that orange I can't read. Also bring back the drop downs for the sports. I hate the way they do it now with the menues. I love the drop down's to change the lines for MLB and NFL.
Pinny likes:
- buy/sell points options directly on the lines grid
- no HTML frames
- shows circled games and their limits on the grid
Pinny dislikes:
- does not have multi-sports "Bet the Board" page like 5Dimes
- too many graphics (I like it simple like Greek)

I think every book should certainly offer the option to express bets as either "to-win" or "to-risk" quantities. It's too easy and too helpful NOT to offer that.
But really why should a book stop there? Why not include a percentage of bankroll option, or allow players to set unit sizes and then place bets as a number of units? Hell, why not allow a player to just enter an edge or expected win probability and have the software fill in the appropriate Kelly stake?

The "time out" factors at TheGreek needs to be improved upon IMO

Yes, I was referring to that sir. For some reason I always seem to get a phone call every time I'm about ready to confirm my wager, and that "time out/ 60 second count down" always seems to screw me up.

60 seconds is a long time, are you trying to cheat their system by seeing if a line in motion goes your way?
Buy/sell points right on the page is my most missed feature since us boot from pinny
also a return to top at the bottom of the page would be nice
Would be great to have a feature to view all lines (ie: game, 1st half, quaters, ect) for a game on a single screen rather than having to go though each menu set to decide which line u want to pick out.
the old pinnacle site was better, simpler, and faster
Agree with lenny old pinny site was better.
What I don't like about Pinnacle is that all the games are up even after they have already started. I used to bet on sportsinteraction and as soon as a game starts that line is removed. It just seems very cluttered especially with college football.
All sportsbook software is very weak with pending bets and bet history, very confusing and not detailed enough.

Buying and selling points is the best.
I totally agree
plain and simple without the flashy B.S. that probably 90% of Pinnacle players really care about.

It is a very nice feature but it is a sucker bet that is why they offer it.
SBR Founder Join Date: 7/20/2005
I disagree coach. I think their option is extremely valuable IMO.

That was one of the things I expected to see in this thread. Pinnacle allows more access to account history and more ways to display it than some banks.

It's been a while since I've checked, but wasn't it like a year or so?
