The books speak directly to Cappers Mall

[The Judge]

This afternoon I emailed a couple of people that I know in upper management at BetJamaica and BetCRIS and asked them to provide some insight from their side of the fence as it pertains to the recent developments in offshore gambling. Scotty Johnson from BetJamaica responded immediately and you will find his incredibly honest take below. I will update this thread when BetCRIS responds which will likely be sometime tomorrow,


Hi Gregg,

Thanks for the email. I can tell you some good news and some not so good. Good news, we have no plans to kick out our U.S. clients. Bad news is the new laws will force some changes as to how we currently do business, some not until July 07. Reality; the free citizens of the U.S.A. will always like to drink, gamble and chase women regardless of what Uncle Sam or anyone else has to say about it.

Whatever changes and work arounds that take place and happen; it’s most important to know that CM members should only at this time play with the big boys who can and will fade the storm and can and will pay out whatever it takes. Three of the biggest that comes to mind right now would be Oly, CRIS and Pinny and even some of the old school smaller joints like Grande, Del Mar etc. With the publicly traded companies taking a hit and the mini run on a lot of under funded books the next weeks will be a changing exposing time that this industry has probably never experienced yet.

Trust me the storm isn’t over as it’s only begun and posts from other trusted posters like yourself is the next best thing right now. Give them advice and updates. Someone like Spiro coming out and saying something like “We have no intentions of complying” is a direct BOS type Spit in Uncle’s Face which at this point of the battle would be extremely ignorant. It’s best we think three times and speak once right now. Sure clients want to hear that all is good but hey, we want to be here in the end to make sure everyone is paid exactly as they should. Even a relatively new book like BetJM has it’s own client’s escrow multiple times and I am very proud of that fact. Being behind the scenes in this crazy industry for over a decade I can positively tell you the majority of the companies do not.


Talk to ya soon,
Scotty

Some of the other books should take a lesson from this

Actions speak much louder than words anyway

I could not agree more, Jack.

Good stuff here, Judge....and though I really like Cris and use them a lot, I'm not at all surprised that Betjm's response came almost immediately and still nothing from cris.

Response from Scott Martin at BetCRIS:

Hey Gregg,

Just 3 words.

Business as usual.

We've been in business for as long as Microsoft and this new law is actually great for our business. Clients can't sign up fast enough.
