Well I loved the greek. Apparently my balance was supposed to be transferred but an unable to log into Heritage. Just emailed them and awaiting a response.

This US government is incompetent.

I may just take my remaining funds from 5dimes and Bookmaker and just call it a day

Don't know if anyone else here was still playing at VIP.com, but they are closing their doors as of Aug 1st--I was told they are totally closing, not just to US players. I requested a payout on Monday and the check showed up yesterday.

Is all this a sign of the US gov't having its hands in places they don't need to be, or is it a reflection of the economic times that the US is in right now?

Can't believe they jacked up the fees for courier check ($45).

Wonder what has triggered this mass exodus all at once--anyone know?

Then why don't they legalize and tax it? Allow Vegas casinos to have online capabilities, and tax winnings at 15 percent like dividends? How hard would that be?

Along with legalizing marijuana:shrug:

I am a libertarian now, fuck the democrats and republicans

pretty hard,obviously....it`s about control....if the plan is to tax and control gambling inside our borders,it`s not much different than their plan to kill our energy industrial complex in lieu of another resource....

they`ve effectively killed our energy producing industrial complex(much like they`re killing internet gambling)....but the alternative?....well,they haven`t thought that far ahead...

but they have control....that`s the important thing...

Kansas City area for who knows how long....
with Cantor and William Hill buying booking operations in Nevada, and big casinos hiring more experts for online gaming--the expectation among industry folks here is that some state will soon legalize online poker (and later sports betting). Once that single state does, like NH was first to have state lottery in 1964, then the floodgates will open and state after state will follow....

yeah, I asked the sports book manager about that via on line chat and he just said that is that and if I didn't like it he would just not send me a check. After that I figured my couple of dimes was as good as gone---so I was very happy to have received the money. did you get yours yet, Dogs?

Not yet--just sent request yesterday--Hadn't made handful of wagers there in a year--they really downgraded their golf offerings last year--even quit allowing parlays. Don't have any where near the funds you had there.

What does your recommended list look like now, Jack?

Do you really care? :shrug:

I don't.

These greedy fuks here in this country ruined it all to pad their own pockets.

If anybody has a problem with any of my sponsors, let me know and I'll help.
