They're "sound as a pound" kalmikrazy, and although they'll let you play in their casino, they do not permit US residents to use their sportsbook.

They don't? They have the USA as an option for countries when you sign up though.

When I complained, they replied

There are no laws restricting US clients from using our online casino, poker or arcade, for this reason there is nothing in place to stop US clients from making deposits into their account.

There you have it!
