    I believe people will get their money back... I am, however, reducing my off-shore risk... taking off about 50% of my money on every site.

    ESPN.com news services

    NEW YORK -- Federal prosecutors say they expect Internet poker companies whose employees are being prosecuted to return money to players, and they're reactivating two domain names to make it easier for that to happen.
    The government announced Wednesday that it has reached agreements with PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker. It will restore the companies' domain names so they can return money to U.S. players.
    The companies were named in a civil money-laundering and forfeiture complaint last week.
    Authorities have announced criminal charges against 11 individuals, including employees of those companies and one other.
    So far, three of the 11 have been arrested. All are free on bail.
    In a statement issued Tuesday regarding the case, ESPN said: "We are aware of the indictment only through what has been announced publicly. For the immediate future, we are making efforts to remove related advertising and programming pending further review

    Boyz we called it last month. Then SBR came out and told us how different sportsbooks processors were and all would be well. Looks like it's gonna happen. Maybe not tonight but within 1-2 years, offshore sportsbooks will be gone. Your money with them.

    It wasnt hard to see as the writing was already on the walls. Few books will be left soon and with the lack of competition, vig goes up and promos go down. Offshore sports betting for the us player is done. Find a local or be smart and figure out how to bet at pinny but i wouldnt put a nickel in any book that accepts us players.

    The same people that were in denial 3 months ago will still be in denial. Must be an ego thing combined with a touch of ignorance. Come tell me i was wrong now

    Might as well bring down 2 birds with one stone, sportsbooks and poker if you are the Fed. Wish they were just as quick to end the drug trade.
