Pinnacle Sports is considered the gold standard of online sports betting.  Since its establishment in 1998 it has carved out an unrivalled reputation for providing the sharpest lines, highest limits and fastest payouts online.

With unbelievably low juice on the NBA, NHL and NCAA Tournament, anyone who considers themselves a serious bettor simply has to have a Pinnacle Sports account in their sportsbook portfolio. But with $1 minimum wagers, and one of the deepest bet menus out there – covering everything from eSports to UFC - Pinnacle Sports is a recommended sportsbook for both professional and casual bettors.

Betting Options:

You name it. They got it. In addition to all the mainstream sports you can name in 30 seconds, Pinnacle sets lines on other events that most books wouldn’t even dream of.

You’ll find odds on hockey leagues that most bettors have never heard of as well as lines from futsal to football and everything in between.

All the major college and professional North American sports are listed along with odds for every major soccer league from Australia to Russia. And the best part of all is, if you don’t like the spread offered, just pick one you do. Pinnacle features a unique drop-down menu on most of their games that feature alternate spreads and the bettor has the option of choosing a different line with an adjusted price.

Payments:

Pinnacle claims to have the speediest payouts in the industry and it’s hard to argue with that. If it didn’t, it simply wouldn’t survive as long as it has due to the high volume and sharp action the book takes in.

As far as methods of payment are concerned, they are too numerous to mention here. Pinnacle takes pretty much whatever suits your needs including credit cards, debit cards, bank wires, Neteller, cashier’s checks and the list goes on. Transaction fees vary though they are competitive with most other books and the payment is swift when cashing out.

One drawback with Pinny is it doesn’t welcome US citizens with open arms. Not since the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act came into play in 2006 has this book accepted those living on US soil.

Reliablity:

If there are two complaints about Pinnacle, they might be about its customer service and its lack of bonus options. But the truth is, they don’t really need either. The book and website run so smoothly and there is so much daily value in lines that you won’t need to complain and you won’t need a gimmicky bonus structure. 

Payouts are fast. payment options are plentiful and you’ll rarely find complaints from customers across the Net on sports betting forums.

Bonus:

Pinnacle takes a different approach to promotions, in that they just don’t do ‘em.

Instead, Pinnacle directs all the promotional funds towards lowering the juice for everyday bettors.

About the closest you can get to a promotion is the reward program at their poker room and casino, which rewards your play with rebates into your sports betting account.

Overall:

Pinnacle is one of those books that you simply need to have an account with. You’ll often find the best lines and most options and if you want your lines before anyone else, this is the spot. Good bettors have their best chance of making the most of their wagers here.
