    just fukin w/ ya JJ. Betjam and Greek weren't one of my outs so I could care less about this.

    If anyone notices the feds are coming after the big boys. Play at smaller books you'll be fine such as betislands, rebatewager justbet, etc

                Like others, I'm struggling to activate my account. The website keeps telling me my information is incorrect, when obviously it is. Guess I'll have to call them or wait.

                Today is a sad day for sure but all this grief isn't warranted, The Greek just didn't want to deal with the US government domain seizures so they pulled out. Bookmaker has been taking fire but stayed strong and is still available to US customers (they are A+ as well), and many other A and B books are online. This is not the end of the industry. The US Government does not own these bookies domains as they are stationed in other countries and if they get seized they will mirror their site without a ".com" name to prevent further seizures. That being said, today is a sad day, but I'm excited to be part of Heritage. Now I will call Heritage to get my account activated.

                    The Greek No Longer Caters To USA Clients

                    Just went to login to my Thegreek.com acct. and received a message saying they were no longer catering to US client and my good sized balance was being transferred to Heritage Sportsbook. Says Heritage is a VIP invitation only. Anyone ever heard of Heritage, and is this kind of thing gonna start happening more often? I have accts with BetOnline and 5dimes. Thanks in advance for any feedback.

                      Hey buddy. 2 years ago when the Evil Bush was president I could play on pokerstars and bet on Betjamaica.

                      now with Lord obama No legitimate online poker and Sportsbooks dropping by the Dozen.

                      I hate John kyl too but look in the mirror as to what our government is doing.

                      plenty of dems voted for this too. So stop acting like they shiit roses

                          The Wire Act illegalised betting at offshore ops for US citizens many years ago. I don't think any current legislation has any effect beyond this.

                          Sorry about BetJam, I placed my very last sportsbet there a while back.

                                        Transfer was easy,getting through on the phone not so easy.Whoever said in this thread you can get your money with no fee is full of crap.Since you can't say how to get your money,I won't.But believe me it sure as hell isn't free.The welcome bonus has no rollover and does not affect your withdrawal if you decide to do so on Monday.

                                                        How could Jam close weeks before football? And to give such short notice is ridiculous! Something is not being told here. They were probably the 2nd or 3rd most profitable book next to pinny and bm! The million dollar question is Why did this happen? (fkn bull....i had a freeplay coming soon and a b-day freeplay!....just my luck!)

                                                          I thought only the poker bill passing would cause this. Now if the poker bill passes I predict it is all over with as far as offshore sportsbetting goes.

                                                                who knows why betjam closed its doors...it could have been a million different reasons.

                                                                luckily i can play at bet365

Much easier to stick to Europe and the rest of the world. Sure NFL is huge in USA but soccer dominates elsewhere. Books will still make a killing off soccer from the rest of the world, no use jeopardizing that.

                                                                      I'll bet within one month anyone who had over $20,000 in Olympic will be able to play there again on credit or with a different address.
