bodog scared me once they were unable to do bank transfers a few months ago.
with no reload bonus there was really no reason to use them anyway unless you're still on their "recreational" lines.
no way does sbr come out better after all of this illini. i respect your opinion, but this stuff is the beginning of the end. vegas might never be "stronger than ever" again, it got WAY overbuilt and so did online poker/sportsbooks. there was really no reason to have hundreds of online sportsbooks, and now that the casual guys are running scared (who can blame them) most of that business will never come back.
all it took for the decline of free music downloading was the government to scare college kids, which is what they're doing now with poker/sportsbooks.

What happens if you have money there? It is gone? Or do they pay you even if they get seized

Fresh partial email from bodog
Dear Kenneth,
We have been informed that Digital Pin is currently unable to process CC transactions.
If you have a balance on your Digital Pin account, you will still be able to transfer it to your Bodog account; however, you will be unable to refill your Digital Pin account until further notice.

The DOJ can't seize Bodog's domain name now. Or at least if they can, they will have a much harder time doing so. The change from .com to .eu was announced in March and is no doubt a preventative move to avoid hassle and interruption of having a domain seized in the future.
Bank Accounts on the other hand are a different story. I don't think anyone can accurately predict what will happen, but it seems Quad Jacks has lot a bit of respect in the poker community. They're throwing a lot of shit against the wall hoping it sticks. It's like the end of the world prophecy last week. If they miss the prediction, everyone forgets about it in a week. If they nail it then they are "the source" to go to for news.

even if this is true it's not like "Bodog is going to get seized" all they can "seize" is the domain name, redirect the website to some gay FBI/homeland security webpage. So not like the entire company will go down in flame, and didn't I read that Bodog already changed domain names to .eu or something other than .com so their domain can't be seized?
Stop panicking, Beted made a business decision to steal. Bookmaker didn't skip a beat. So it's just one more reason to use a top rated book not to panic and run for the hills.

Louis Bank Accts also were seized?? along with the K23 processor which 100% was owned by Bookmaker!! Bodog doesnt have as many options as BM, if they get there payment processors seized then u will see what happens! I mean they just started paying in a timely manner over the last 1.5 yrs!!
But I read in a couple places that K23 is only charged for processing $91k, and the woman was only a low level employee, not a principal owner like the BetED indictments. Some of that was summed up here, http://www.onlinepokerinsiders.com/2...caught-in.html
Hopefully they are now proactive about not using US processing, so they cannot get into the same trouble as the Black Friday indictments, which seem much more serious.

I sure hope your wrong OP but maybe they heard this stuff before they changed the .com stuff and to be honest i heard a few months back that they were under investigation but that was before the name change and from what ive read i dont they can go after them anymore. I read an arcticle that they used to shutdown the company's but now its just the domain names and front end of the business. Thanks for the heads up as i will get my doe out and see what happens in a while.

I have consistantly told all of you that the days of off shore wagering are numbered. Nothing has changed. This is the beginning of a push to get legalized on line gameing in the U.S, and ban all off shore gaming sites. The Vegas conglomerate is ready to roll. The Senate Majority Leader is from Nevada. How can you not see the handwritting on the wall?

Sportsbooks have pretty much gotten away with it with minimal trouble for 15 years. What makes you think now all the sudden several hundred sportsbooks can really be taken down? That seems unrealistic. If they stop using processors that use US shell company accounts, they should be fine. If they send all wires, checks, etc from foreign accounts, I don't see how they could get indicted.

At this point i could give a sh-it what you say or what u know or think u know, what are u trying to prove by making an announcement like that. For 1 im so fed up with our govn that i would rather play in offshore than to play here and pay taxes for these fools. This is really tiring me out and to be honest they are going out of there way to try and make sh-it hard well guess what i have no problem going out of my way as well, not to hard to go 4 hours west and im in Canada.
But i would like to wait and see what happens as now these places have changed there domains, let see if what i read holds about that.
I also say fu-ck all u idiots running around here preaching your sh-it about how everything is done, just cause some of u are degenerates doesn't mean everyone else is maybe this is people's livelyhoods and how some of us put food on the table.
They are all going down. Merge checks are bouncing. I don't believe I will ever see my UB money but might see my fulltilt funds eventually. Bodog is a good site and will be paying. SBR will be forgotten a year from now if that long.
The whole world is not just the usa. SBR provides a valuable role. While not totally unbiased; their are a lot more accurate than covers, therx, and other websites that review sportsbooks

i think the title of this thred should be changed. to possibly. or may be.
you sound so definite about the future. but in the end u don't know if you will be taking a dump tonite at 10pm. cuz u culd get hit by a semi at 7pm.
so to say. DONKDWON WILL BE TAKING A DUMP TONITE AT 10PM. I ALWAYS HAVE BEFORE FOR YEARS. I'VE NEVER MISSED A FLUSH. i don't even buy that.
proly. taking a dump. OR I'VE i've always taken a dump.
and i know u are protecting ur secret source. i assume it is a guy, since you say guy. but proly this guy is about the same as the rest of us guys. and scratches his nutz when they itch in the hot summer. and maybe picks at his underwear sticking in his butt crack. he is just a guy.
but ur title is to strong. it is the wrong impression.
Guys I hope this is wrong also!! The domain is not what Im worrried about it is the processors they use! They just stopped PayLinq today!! The Goverment wants BoDog bad!!
Can you please provide your info on PayLinq? Nobody has reported that they have gone down.
