Default Re: Can someone explain how Full Tilt is still in business? Doyle?

Executives from a number of online sports books have come to the United States and gone to jail. Could their support staff end up in jail, probably if they are part of a conspiracy. Would the US government waste their time prosecuting them, who knows?

You need to tone it down bud. You're being a drama queen aren't you?

The "executives" that came to the US and were arrested were from one company, who was determined by the government to have Gambino crime family connections. This company is also known for being "thugs" and they set up a bus in Miami for people to come sign up for their site. A little too aggressive.

That's the only people to be arrested.

The Sportingbet (owners of Paradise poker, sportsbook.com, and many others) guy who was detained in NY was for a state charge in La. that carried a max fine of $500 and one year in jail. When La asked for him to be extradicted from NY, Gov. Pataki said no and released the executive back to the UK. Did the feds come in and try to arrest the Sportingbet exec? Nope, they weren't interested in him.

Just some facts for the drama queen. Not sure why you're wasting time on a pokersite when you're so convinced the poker world is coming to an end. If you're going to be an [censored], at least get your facts start.

Now who's retarded?
