Winner: The A+ books who take all comers. Trust should always be the main consideration when choosing a book. It certainly is now.

Loser: Forums, sports handicapping sites and affiliates

Winner: SP and the rest of the jr transfer companies who prayed daily that Neteller would pack it in.

Loser: Scalpers. Take Pinny and NT away from this group and the tool box is left with old tools and sharp objects.

Winner: BuddyBear and JJ Gold.

Loser: book employees from Antigua to Costa Rica

Winner: Black market street bookies. The internet threatened to cause this element to nearly become extinct. How ironic that the US government brings back a boom for this group.

No kidding John I'm thinking about getting back in the Bussiness. I'll probably need a new wife if I do it.

. I'll probably need a new wife if I do it.

Have mine

[bigloser]

Please

[Aces]

How is she at taking calls and working in a fast paced enviroment ?

[bigloser]

OK never mind . It was worth a try.

[Rebel_Yell]

According to the Major, SP is gone.

[Aces]

The 4 letter word did it i guess W-O-R-K

[jjgold]

I still think A books are going to fold to usa players

[pags11]

always such a positive guy...appreciate it jj...

[freebie]

JJgod should be celebrating now. NT and Pinny are gone. And everything is a mess.

JJgod finally god what he wanted. A disable man waiting on state welfare check while hoping the offshore industry bust, cause he uses monopoly money to gamble.

JJ, I always had respects for you. But now? **** OFF JJfold!

[bigboydan]

SP is history to US players

Every local I talk too is loving this.

I hate to hear workers will be out of a job in those countries you mentioned above

Despite what you say about JJGold. John, I'm sure he hates this sh!t. I guess he just might have to go back his pecker grabbing hobby.

Well i wouldn't say I am a "winner" in all of this....i am just as upset about the whole thing as everyone else. I mean, I am sitting here wanting to place a bet but haven't the faintest idea how to place it b/c I can't get any money in my account right now.

For the record I did say quite a few things that turned out to be relatively accurate but similarly I said some things that were way off. I am not clairvoyant by any stretch of the imagination but I am willing to say some unpopular things if I believe them to be true.

I respect the job that SBR is doing and will continue to do. I know no matter what they will provide for us the most honest assessment of the situation. I think some of us may have to swallow our pride and take a good hard look at the likes of BoDog, 5dimes, and VIP. Even though they aren't Pinnacle they are still extremely safe and have a strong reputation. Right now, it's all about safety. Forget about whether the customer service speaks good English or not....we have to find a way to get our money into books that are reputable and secure.

I hope all this can be resolved in due time....

[jjgold]

Well I saw the whole picture and knew the law was going to stick and no way around it. I do not let gambling cloud my judgment on reality.

[JoshW]

I am not sure are any winners in this. Even A+ books are likely going to lose business rather than increase it with virtually no ways to deposit. Plus the fewer there are the bigger target they have on their back.

Only winner is street bookies IMO.

[jjgold]

Johnny your a winner, I will miss gambling

What's cool about Goldie collecting welfare (took him approx. 7 years for an appeal and legal work so we don't want the time spent and hassles to go to waste) is that once he dies, we have an agreement i'll bury him in the hills in west virgina and we will not produce a death certificate nor an obit in the Jersey papers. that way he'll "really" still be alive but i'll be collecting his checks.,,

Uncle Sam probably won't catch on to this until he reaches the age of 106 and then red flags will go off

[jjgold]

Compactor I am still collecting and working on the side and being discreet so labor detectives dont see me, that is why I wear the shades.

[pags11]

as do I trust...

[jjgold]

Buddy and I know the industry very well, we both love to bet but do point out the real facts.

Im with Laker, this is the only winners I see with whats going on now in the offshore world.

[Jay Edgar]

Im using matchbook and it seems a great alternative. If they could grab a much bigger share of the betting public- big bets would be no prob. I just hope they can hang in.

as do I trust...

TBV and Pags have bingo.

Just change "hope" to "pray".
