    Offshore shops must be sweating their balls off.

    How in the world would they be able to compete with facebook?

    They wouldnt. Imagine being able to directly match bets with idiots on facebook. Just offer retard numbers and they would bite. The world will go p2p, the middleman is about to be erased.

    Facebook was recently valued at $104 BILLION

    im sure it would make sense for them to allow online gambling that could ruin their business.

    If they allowed gambling anywhere on the site to any user the DOJ would have a field day with it.

    If people bet on the side that's one thing but for anyone to regulate wins and losses on Facebook is absurd.

    Theyd stay a million miles away from that. Risk >>>>>>> reward

    Why hasn't a book just created its own social network to do this? Because its still not legal in the us.

    have you heard of zynga? when ipoker becomes legal, zynga could buy a license and work with facebook. that's gonna bring a lot of fish to the poker community.

    Remember when you could fund books with paypppal ? They even had a rep posting on the forums...

    When they were about to get bought and wanted to be 'legit' they kicked us to the curb.

    Same for FB
