Just too hard to get money down there or should I say not as easy as last football season.
Big Bettors will go back to locals as large amounts to transfer to a book from States is very hard and takes way too long.

If things stay like they are some books will be up and have gained market share due to fewer choices.

Most of the average Joe's won't bother to jump though the hoops to get it to the books nowadays IMO. The remaining books that still accept U.S. players better find some type of online payment method that is problem free before football season starts.

The smaller type player will be fine but the large post up players might be gone.

It will certainly be down. The question is how much? I would guess total amount of money bet will be down around 35-40%.

Its a big decline yes. But considering online wagering was growing at a 35% per year growth rate this just returns the industry to 05'-06' levels. A gut-shot punch for sure but not even close to life threating.

Im not sure. The sharp guys that can actually handicapp are sure not going anywhere. But the guys who learned the craft of grabbing a bonus at 2 books and betting the opposite side to work through the rollover or certainly on the endangered list. The books wont miss that segment but also the books lose a bunch of average Joe's so maybe it comes close to balancing out.
