Seems like an obvious eventual cancellation.

I figured so as well, but I went ahead and bet the No just in case. I'm not really worried about Pinnacle imposing any sort of negative consequences like I might be at other books.

that's not a good mentality to have towards any entity that will help make you money for the rest of your life. you need Pinnacle a lot more than they need you.

What's fair here, +135/-156?

Good luck.

They have closed people's accounts for betting obviously incorrect lines before. Just a warning.

Who says I MAKE money at Pinnacle? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Anyway, they refunded the money but without any notes in my account history or anything like that. Kinda strange--I would have thought they'd at least have a record of the transactions.

As of this moment, my account is not closed. I'm surprised Pinnacle has closed accounts for betting line errors, as they seem to be the least concerned with avoiding sharp action (e.g., they don't care if you bet both sides of a game). Maybe it only happens to repeat offenders, or to people who bet more money than I do.

Your action isn't sharp, its mild cheating.
