#37They are going to force IP Providers to block any illegal gambling sites or else back breaking fines
Also force CR gov't with typical usa pressure to close them down
Nobody wants trouble with USA and possible sanctions
DOJ can do this in secondsand also freeze funds CR banks and other banks
Never fool with USAComment -

If DOJ try to impose those types of sanctions on behalf of states, they will be dragged back to court, and lose again..Comment -

#39How do they legally ban businesses that are 100% legal in their own jurisdictions?
USA does not get to make rules for other countries nor can they ban Americans from using legal foreign business under international trade agreements.
USA already got convicted and fined for breaking international laws when they tried to ban Jamaica books.
That's why we ended up with the bans on money transfer businesses being used for gambling as a more legal way to try.
As such, it requested that Australian internet service providers (ISPs) block each of the websites.
Since the ACMA made its first blocking request in November of 2019, a total of 447 illegal gambling sites have been blocked in the country.
In addition, a further 160 illegal services, including operators and affiliate businesses, have pulled out of the Australian market since the ACMA began enforcing new illegal offshore gambling rules in 2017.
“Website blocking provides a valuable opportunity to alert the public to illegal gambling services through the messaging that appears when there is an attempt to access the site,” the ACMA said.Comment -

Well they seem to have done it in Australia, how can you not have known this, or am I missing something

You will not find one bookmaker who you have ever heard of, if you can even find a bookmaker blocked at all.
It did not happen, as it is illegal under trade agreements the country has.
Australia used another method to get compliance. Talking to the books..Comment -

#43I m guessing that means they threatened them with legal action. SBR is so confusing now, you claim to be a site for legal onshore sites yet the site continues to defend and posters promote offshore, sooner or later the site is going to have to make a decision on what the site is going to be. Im not complaining just confused like I’m sure everyone else around here isComment -

Also, I'm not defending anyone.
Just still speaking the truth about my opinions.
There is no policy to be against offshore talk at SBR. Just that the company does not wish to be seen actively promoting and resolving disputes for it anymore..Comment -

#49If USA approached offshore books they would fold up like cheap suits we all know this
How easy is it to find offshore owners??
How about under 24 hrs they would be arrested , USA knows where terrorists are in mountains they sure can find out offshore owners wearing mink coats in downtown San Jose real quickComment -

#50Honestly I am not really sure how exactly Australia negotiated compliance so much better than the USA managed to do it. But one major book did tell me the initial approach was casual and friendly and they simply agreed to block Aussie traffic.

Overseas bookmakers with Australian gambling licences are as safe as any homegrown betting agency. Betting sites that are based overseas must have an Australian office and must follow Australian gambling laws so you can be sure that they are safe and trustworthy.
That would never happen in the USA, a offshore USA based officeComment -

#52If they take offshores down, USA books wouldn't grow. That's the thing.
I'd probably only bet golf with USA books. There is just no reason for me to even bet with them period. I don't bet for fun. I only bet to make money. If I can't bet to make money, I won't bet at all.Comment -

#62Imagine how well a US book would do if they operated like BOL and had better customer service. Big opportunity here for someone with deep pockets to come in and dominate the US market.
Keep your lines razor sharp and treat your players well. Give reasonable bonuses and don't kick winners out. There's your formula.Comment -

#65This is such bullshit. Sports wagering is not legal in my state and I’ve been doing offshore gambling for years now. IF they ban us from using them I will be so pissed! This country has gone down the tubes but yet they are worried about people betting on sports offshore? 🤬😡 Hope this doesn’t happen!Comment -

Let the customers wager large.... let them win (if they can).... then tax the earnings.... everything is on record... having the SS number etc. Run an honest operation... would attract even more potential customers. They really have no brains. F them. Wager offshore then.Comment -

#67I'm sure the gov would love to ban offshore by football season.... I'd like to see them try. They would literally have to make a law immediately.... and have strict enforcing by Sept 1 2022 in the guidelines. Possible scare tactic like always?? Who knows?
Our govt has done weird things.... like writing and enforcing an indoor tanning tax law on Christmas Eve. Who the hell meets on Christmas Eve to vote?? True story. They did this so it would go into effect "TAX WISE" January 1 of the following year. Most ridiculous thing ever done IMO.
So if they can do that.... they can do anything.Comment -

#68Great post. You can tell they are thieves in the night. Running the operation like a bookie who steals 0.5 to 1 point when you call to make a wager.
