How does it stack up against other bigtime offshore books?<\/p>\n
Offerings<\/h4>\n
Pinnacle is its own beast when it comes to offerings. It definitely isn\u2019t a pretty book \u2013 and it knows it. Pinnacle is much more cut from the \u201cbare bones\u201d cloth. It eschews most of the fancy graphics for odds, odds and more odds. Pinnacle has some awesome lines. It takes care of the major North American staples like NFL, NBA, NHL and MLB but it really separates itself from the competition with its detailed international offerings. You can bet on multiple types of rugby, soccer, snooker, Formula 1, even beach volleyball.<\/p>\n The only curious omission is MMA, which is listed but has no lines (which makes no sense as there are plenty of fights on the docket this month).<\/p>\n Pinnacle really goes above and beyond the other books with its exotics. You can bet on politics, video game tournaments (gasp!) and even \u201cmuggle quidditch,\u201d in which schools will recreate and compete in the fictional sport from the Harry Potter <\/em>books.<\/p>\n Pinnacle has no horse betting options that I can find; and its casino and poker offerings are a little weak. I like the no-download trial mode but the actual gaming options are pretty limited. Still \u2013 Pinnacle deserves a high grade for its offerings as you won\u2019t find better sports betting variety anywhere. It knows what it\u2019s about and does it very well.<\/p>\n Grade: A<\/strong><\/p>\n As you\u2019d expect, Pinnacle is a highly easy site to navigate because it took the bare-bones approach. Everything loads extremely quickly and is easy to find. The drop-down menus are intuitive and legible. The limited Flash graphics are non-invasive.<\/p>\n There isn\u2019t much else to say. Pinnacle is quick as can be and quite a convenient site to bet on.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
