    Dont blame the books !
    They dont know what to do at the moment . They didnt create this mess , it was created by Bush and the Idiots that voted for him.
    The books are having to deal with conflicting regulations. Take WWTS for example. It looks as if they are on the edge. In such circumstances making wholesale payouts to players could be illegal under UK law. So they do nothing until things are clearer. Same with Sportingbet.
    The law is unclear, bonuswhores have done a survey of their 103 pokerooms , 57 will leave US 56 will stay (or something like that). Clearly the law can be interpreted in 2 ways and the sites are split pretty evenly on which way to go.
    There will be confusion, players wont be happy, but then neither will the sportsbooks. In a week or sos time the issues will be resolved one way or amother. Either your money will be gone for good or things will be running relatively smoothly.

    REMEMBER WHO IS TO BLAME. The government.

        I take it you do not have a couple of dimes trapped in cybersportsbook with no way to get to it now do you "Big Loser"


        Just because the rules of the game have changed midstream doesn't give people a license to fvckepeople out of hard earned money.

          Why blame the rapist when the victim was dressed so provocatively?

            The books that are folding are the ones where the directors/managers are not the owners. It is the directors who are responsible for any legal issues.
            No way I would open myself up to going to prison for someone elses business. What would I have to gain ? Plenty to lose

                    I was thinking the same thing too. Why risk having green berets parachute into your country just because you took an American's wager on his own NFL football game. It's just a bay of pig over again, the US gov't wants their share in Vegas.
