Still waiting BECKY! I just dont understand how she can convince me its safe anymore.
If you look at some of the charges, Bodog has committed many of the same offenses. For example when I run my CC, it says laptop-fuel.com. I talked with support and the only thing they told me is that they are 100% safe because all of their operations are run internationally. Im still very very skeptical, and think low balance betting is the way to go in the short-term.Comment -
This may have been covered here already, but now Im hearing they've even seized the Full Tilt Forum? Haha if true now they're just being (even bigger) dicks...Comment -
Trickle down effect through the entire offshore gaming world.
As stated in another thread, sportsbooks will be seeing a small run on their banks over the next 72 hours because of all this.........and much fewer deposits than normal.Comment -

It was a massive cash grab.....75 bank accounts...most if not all the processors...a few weeks or months before the main event. Lots of money about to be moved...US govt waited for one of the better moments to pounce.
Good news is that it looks like the govt knows what kind of money this can make and might get off its collective arse and legalized their own national poker roomsComment -
I absolutely loathe the ESPN model in the poker business. They pay the WSOP a flat fee, make everyone who is paying their own way into the event sign over their likeness and image for life for zero compensation as ESPN contributes nothing to the prize pool and gets to own and broadcast the events whenever they want forever. The NAPT/EPT Stars shit is a totally different model, they essentially charge them like an informercial.
As for the hit, a smaller field does not mean less episodes, there are hundreds of amazing hands at the Series every year that don't get coverage. You could make the argument that with less people in the field, producers have more eyes on more hands and can make more compelling episodes.Comment -

I'm probably going to sit tight and let the rush diminish. Not exposed nearly as much as years ago. But do want to keep balances low enough so that the simplest cash withdrawal option remains an option. Hence it's got be be small time from here on out which it has been for the last 5 yrs anyway.
Was thinking I am too old to move to Vegas. Hell why think like that? What I'm too old to do is change the way I choose to utilize my money for my personal pursuit of pleasure. That's money that I have legally earned and paid taxes on.Comment -
