seems kind of odd.... especially since when i left colombia two weeks ago, justbet had replaced pinny on the non-us ip adds, but now bodog replaced justbet in the us

Yeah Phoenix got replaced
Guess they couldn't afford to advertise after spending a fortune getting their site back up
OK or maybe it was Just Bet. But I thought Phoenix used to be up there too

We've got to keep hope alive they will be back for USA clients
Crazy Lou can you explain why Pinny is on the list when USA players cannot sign on with them?

Can't pinny advertise here? WTF? I hate to break the news to you guys but there is a world outside of America. I can use Pinnacle so can Stumpage, Baus, Mudcat, CobraKing, Smog and a list of others. Just because you can't doesn't mean squat. Up until a short time ago, I couldn't have a bodog account but didn't say hey SBR what are they advertising I can't use them.

I agree but it would be a waste of money if they are advertising to USA Players then they don't allow them? that does not make much sense.

The posters poll rates Pinnacle #4. That's pretty good given apparently no one can use them...... Lots of SBR posters use Pinny. In the rest of the world they can advertise they are a sponsor on SBR which can carry some weight. SBR has been pumping bet phoenix and now they disappear as a sponsor. Can you say Las Palmas all over again.....

As a guess, what proportion of SBR users do you think are American?
90%+ I would have thought.

Gutsy call and you may be on to something. I just got out of LP before it went real bad. Glad my BP balance is relatively small now. Not feeling good about them recently.

Another bad sign for BetPhoenix is that SBR has stopped processing freeplay purchases. My request for a $100 freeplay was canceled today and my points refunded.

HedgeHog I know. I do believe that SBR is going to honor them for Bet Jam and others. I sure see a downgrade of Bet Phoenix here possibly.

Did you get a reason for this?

It could just be that their contract has expired and they chose not to renew it; they do advertise elsewhere. SBR haven't reported any news or downgrades which you'd expect if there were problems. Either way it would be nice to get clarification.
