I know that this site relies (certainly at least in part) on advertising $$$ from several off-shore books. Some have closed up shop, some still remain open for business. Certainly it does appear that they are starting to fall like dominoes. I hope for everyone's sake it doesn't happen, but if you have an on-line account, I think you should at least be somewhat concerned.

I hope I am wrong, but I would not be surprised if in 3 months from now, the only on-line "books" remaining are those that operate like a local does (offering advance credit and then collecting or paying when you reach a certain dollar amount and/or on a weekly basis). And all that is my friends is the 21st century version of what we previously had when all we had were locals to play with.

This not always true.....Bodog announced a few weeks ago that they are no longer advertising with any US companies or anywhere in the US. They are still excepting all US players

I know it was reported by some sites about 5dimes earlier today.

I spoke to a contact over there who adamantly denied leaving the US Market. I think those rumors today were false.

Carib on the other hand has stopped taking new US residents. That is true
