This season, CRIS and TheGreek have had a first half line up on virtually every college basketball game. Pinnacle has offered only a select few each day, often with no total. Cheers to the true bookmakers of the world.

They aren't posting many 2nd half lines either.

I would say less than 50% of all ncaa games.

Didn´t you strongly dislike CRIS? Iam a long time reader of SBR, and am surprised about your statement in this thread.

Pinnacle doesn´t cut anyones limits, only in very rare cases, and offers -105. I can understand that they do not want to offer all NCAA half lines, now that they left the U.S. market. Why should they?
They are still the sharpest book out there, as far as my opinion goes.

By the way HI all

Pinnacle has been degrading at an alarming rate.

[durito]

Makes sense with the lack of US clients.

NCAA totals limits are $500 right now. Every US sport's had their limits cut.

I still use them, and strongly disagree.
Nothing changed for me as european player. Lightning quick and no hassle payouts, limits are still the same, and i can lay a bet on everything i want. They have dynamic lines on soccer now, that wasn´t there a year go.

CRIS could certainly stand to improve in many important areas, but as a pure bookmaking operation they're second to none.

Pinnacle deals -108 on NCAABK halves, not -105. Their limits are lower than CRIS. Their risk management is inherently superior. There's no reason they shouldn't be posting these lines, especially after the full game openers have been polished. If they're out there taking leads on Saudi Arabian soccer, it's an embarrassment not to have an Arizona/Kansas 1H line.

[Gurni]

You make some good points there Ricky, i forgot it´s not -105 for everything.

Pinnacle still has very early lines on major U.S. sports thou, some are out faster than Greek´s or CRIS.
I basically just disagree that they would not be as good as CRIS or Greek, honestly guys..who out of the U.S. posters here wouldn´t love to still being able to use them?

[Scorpion]

Pinnacles limits for H1 totals was also $250 last yr at some point or maybe most of the year, I dont remember

[Wheell]

It could be that without the US Market it just isn't worth their time.

[pico]

i noticed. they only have wake forest game lines right now

oh well, at least their nba and nfl limits are pretty high

btw, those ****ers takes games offlines when you bet big

[jjgold]

Pinny volume way down so they cannot take big pops anymore

exactly. why invest in putting up tons of lines on American NCAA, when you don't have any Americans left to bet on it. It's not like the rest of the world cares about these obscure little games, i'm sure their remaining customers even prefer Saudi Arabian soccer, like rickysteve said.
