Sportsbook review - Pinnacle Sports - betting markets

By howtobet on February 23, 2012 in

Being one of the most known betting companies world wide, Pinnacle Sports has the best betting offers, for it has been the first to adopt a new betting type with discount vigs, rather than using the standard betting model. Having great odds at a reduced juice model, you will benefit from massive betting limits, no limit collars and also fast payouts. The idea is that they try to turn over as much as possible on as many markets and objects as possible, then be profitable on that turnover with a small margin. This, rather than having a low vig and aiming only for the leisure punter segment. The hold might look nice in percent, but ask those in the know; they will tell you turnover is the way to go if you count your profit in dollars and cents.

Being a fully licensed and regulated company, Pinnacle Sports offers its clients only the best services when it comes to placing a bet. They have single bets, Asian handicaps, prop or special bets, future or ante post, parlays, teasers, buying points, horse racing and live betting.

To begin with, the single bets include sides, totals and moneylines. When two different teams, from a strength point of view, play, then the company offers a point spread on the team. That is the number of points that the favored team should win by, in the relevant game. The spread is then added to the winning team's score and so it is seen which team has won the game and the final score. The total or over/under betting refers to the wager on the total number of points scored by both teams. You can choose to bet on whether the total points are above or under the posted line. Another betting option is the moneyline. The moneyline expresses the odds on offer for one team to beat the other one. A team doesn't necessary have to win by a certain number of points here, it just has to win, for your bet to be paid out.

Moreover, you can also use the Asian handicap betting method. It is used in the football matches and it is represented by one or two point spreads or handicaps as they are also called, besides the initial moneyline (for more on Asian handicap see Asian odds explained). Another simple way of betting offered by Pinnacle Sports, is the prop bet which basically is a side bet or special bet (such as total points scored by a certain player). The futures / ante post bets are wagers placed on a certain team that you think might win the championship, at the start of a particular season (or often with updated prices during the season). Parlays represent another way of betting at Pinnacle Sports and they are a combination of several picks. In order to win, you have to predict correctly all of your selections. Teasers are like the parlay, only that you can adjust the spread in your favor, to have bigger chances of winning. For more information on parlays see What are parlays.

Pinnacle in the US market

A particular thing about Pinnacle Sports company, is its withdrawal from the US market, as it in 2007 announced that it would no longer accept any bets from US players. But in the end, the company made an agreement with the World Sports Exchange so that the US based clients would have an alternate way of accessing their website.

Conclusion

To conclude, Pinnacle Sports the betting site is among the very best available, it has clients from over 100 countries and covers all of the most known markets. Also it is widely known that Pinnacle Sports offer low vig compared to most of the internet bookmakers in the sportsbook industry. This is simply just great stuff according to the sportsbook review team.
