Still no word from SBR...... (unless I'm missing it!)
One or possibly two partial owners of Pinnacle were arrested yet still nothing.....
Mike Colbert, from most accounts, was running and answered to no-one in regards to the bookmaking side of Cantor Gaming..... (who may be operating all the Ceasers books in a couple of months)
LOL
This story is as big as it gets for sportsbetting yet no report....

I thought I saw one earlier, didn't have time to watch vid, then went back to look and could not find it. Glad to know I am not going crazy.

Really having a major impact at street level and not a peep here. I rather doubt whether or not anyone here has seen the street lately.
This place has really lost ground in a lot of major player related areas. More focused on laying odds in their own fruit stand as to whether their clown mascot will return.

Agents running like hell in the middle of the night across the midwest. A big big hole in the street take. Some guys won't take action at all or are very limited. No where to lay off. Word travels fast though, I think anyone connected will get out of Dodge around these parts.
I bet they're running around like little bugs in Panama too.
Another five family takedown.

I'm not involved so I don't know but I'm definitely inclined to believe this.
Combine that statement with the fact you have morons in the so-called "media" (Vegas Runner, David Purdam, Pregame.com in general) claiming things are exactly the same on the street like nothing happened....... lol
I would make a pretty large wager that this bust involves much more than 50 million. That is just what they have recorded in the past few months.....

Since it's well known that Justin7 used to work for Pinnacle and is no doubt under a Non-Disclosure Agreement with them, why does anyone think he's going to have any insider insight here that he'll start spouting and get blackballed from the entire industry and also hounded by Pinnacle? Barking up the wrong tree on this one.

Looks like SBR John/Justin7/SBR might have forgot the job of informing the readers of this site that the financial backer(s) of a certain sportsbook may have been arrested in this case.

To be fair to John, he was probably in the same situation as most of the players. Trying to get his money. He had a lot invested as well. Sounds shitty but at the end of the day when the ship is going down you gotta save yourself too.
Bad fukkin spot for all involved. Really no way to win when the cash flow dries up overnight. And even more importantly the software on the street here was no longer supported. Probably a large sum vanished into cyberspace as well.
