    hmmmm, you question the usefulness of the sports-book and industry forum one day and start this thread the very next day. Ironic.

    It is useful information. A business going under is not likely to hold holiday party for employees, wouldn't you think?

    I HAVE NO PROBLEM with the content of the thread or you reading into the fact that they are having a party tonight increasing the chances that things are business as usual over there and i will be paid. The title is obviously misleading, and can cause a panic when there is plenty of that already going on.

    I think you may have missed the point of this thread. It was meant to ridicule the outrageous drama thread that BI is going under anytime soon. The Book is solid financially as evidenced by its recent purchase of other outfits.

    PS I just read your other post concerning an outstanding payout. No worries, you'll get paid--and I'm sorry if my attempt at satire raised your blood pressure.

    Actually, I appreciated this message on betisland's website. It's the VERY FIRST time they changed something and bothered to tell customers about it. Finding out about personnel changes, merger/upgrade, website issues, payout issues etc after the fact BLOWS. I'd rather have an email/website heads up as a courtesy to customers.That's how one avoids or at least mitigates the "drama" threads.
