I think this news is just a proof that in many European countries the governments are not quite adequate to the online gambling business requirements, I think "unstable regulation" means exactly that and it's a shame that the German punters can't be able to use the products of one of the leading bookies out there because of regulation issues.
or may be Pinnaclesports couldn't follow the rules....remember there are still other bookies in Germany.. it's hard to understand the whole situation from one side especially when all we know is "unstable regulation".
I just guessing but I don't think the problem is in Pinnacle, they are well known and one of the leading bookies on the market operating in so many countries around the world, so I doubt they will leave just like that this so huge market if there isn't something really wrong in regulations. It doesn't make sense for me.
