You are a big liar,you don't know what are you saying.
You have said earlier ( in "golden ages" ) that Jon ( OWNER of BI) is your friend.Now that BI broke ,you are saying that Jon was not the owner ,but simply the general manager.SO ,my question is : Was Jon the owner or the GM ? Please ,can you ask your "sources" ?

This guy http://www.sportsbookreview.com/forum/sportsbook...etislands.html knew everything and he warned the others.Since his statement about arrests and employees resulted true , the remaining part (taxer is jon) is also 100% true.

PS : Fortunately , BI were not accepting europeans.I went to create an account based on your ratings ,buy i got lucky

Let me clarify.

Jon was the owner, someone else was the financial backer. Jon made a lot of decisions -- the kind you'd expect from a CEO. He didn't control the lines or much of the risk management. Lines were controlled by M&M (playcr) mostly, until some point in early November (I think).

The financial backer was arrested in September. He faced further legal problems a few weeks later. At some point the backer became unable or unwilling to continue funding BI, probably due in no small part due to legal pressures in the US.
