    BetCRIS makes deal with NFL

    Pretty amazing stuff. The NFL is going in with BetCRIS.

    Yeah, if I were 5Dimes I think I'd want to rebrand.

    I just read this and was about to post. A full story on espn is linked: here.

    I wonder if the disaster at 5dimes is at all related to this.

    That would be my bet. The ducks are getting put in a row and you want in on the action. 5Dimes needs a makeover pronto.

    In other news, Colorado is officially going in with a Colorado casino. They are not even pretending. If I am a Buff, I want my paycheck.

    From the ESPN article,

    "The NFL, which met with Betcris leaders in Costa Rica, became comfortable during the due-diligence process that the sportsbook is now operating lawfully."

    Hah maybe that's why 5Dimes is kicking out all it's American players on short notice, got to look all legal and shit for the NFL execs and what not.

    When you have been partnered with the NFL for two year, what is to stop you from moving to the US. Not much.

    BetCRIS is well on its way to owning the US market. Did not see that coming.

    I live in Colorado and what are you trying to say? "Colorado is offically going in with a Colorado casino" means what exactly? There are bunches of casinos here in Colorado and have been for decades so what are you trying to say....makes no sense.

    So the NFL is very concerned about offshore messing with their US profits. So what are they doing? They are bring offshore onshore. If you can't beat them, join them.

    Sure they are connected. It's all semantics. Oh, your company don't violate American law by the books. Oh, ok welcome. Sure it's bullchit but really a good move because bookmaker/betcris is as good as it gets and they should dominate a US market right now.

    Covid19 took billions from legal American companies. There is no room for illegal competition from their business perspective. Rightfully so. It's just business. And it's cutthroat stuff. The big squeeze is on. It was a matter of time. Covid19 expedited it and these American operators had all summer and countless meetings to discuss it.

    NFL is legitimizing BetCRIS here. They will then be able to vouch for them and lobby for them in the US. What the NFL wants, it will obviously get.

    If you are the NFL, you need BETCRIS to set lines and provide professional level action to get all the money out of offshore. Once you have BetCRIS in fold, the US becomes the biggest gambling market in the world and you will be gambling even in Texas and Utah.

    Bingo. Offshore is coming onshore by way of the squeeze. Ball squeeze that is. NFL could also go after all these guys and put them out of business if it wanted to. “You can’t post my games, likeness, etc...” of course, there could still be a black market but NFL wants every damn dime they can get.

    Illegal black market sports betting is done. American legalization will not allow it. It's basic math. And it makes sense. Right or wrong.

    But offshore books aren't illegal everywhere

    They will always exist and ppl from the states will still play there because in many ways they are better

    No

    Ask the guys who have already been playing at them.

    They are years behind

    And I'm not sure you know the complete landscape of SBR's company

    CRIS is already legitimate with brick and mortar shops in many countries in Latin America. They have been around forever.

    So does this mean we should expect bookmaker.eu to shut down soon and then it's only cris?

    I agree, gold, I hear ya. But no one has to wake up and wonder if the futures will be paid. Regulation is the future in America. Don't care how you and ppl who profit from offshore spin it. You know I'm correct.

    If it's beneficial and profitable for bookmaker with betcris in an American legal venue then bookmaker would kill operation very fast. American regulation is more important for profit than anything right now. We're talking about billions of dollars here. Wake up.

    For knowledgeable folks like Purdum, the DOJ, and the NFL to turn a blind eye to the fact that CRIS = Bookmaker, and they still are booking Americans offshore, they don't care and don't want to know. 5Dimes wants to get into that position.

    When the music stops, and BetCris and 5dimes are US legit -- watch them turn on the rest of the offshores by ratting out their playbooks to the Feds and choking off the financial flow. It will be getting even harder to play offshore because the money will be much harder to transfer.......... it is coming.
