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?

Exactly right.

Bet On Sports had a dubious history, which is why David Carruthers was arrested. Although the Feds were, as MagCFO notes, ultimately after the Gambinos.

The Peter Dicks (of Sportingbet) episode was all a bit of a joke. Louisiana's extradition warrant was thrown out after being considered by Pataki and Spitzer, and Dicks was freed to go back to the UK.

Detained, that is different than arrested? You may want to ask one of the attorneys in this forum, they will tell you differently.

What about Gold Medal Sports, Paradise Casino, Bestlinesports, Betcris, SafeDepositSports, BetWTTS, BetTheDuck and others. All online gambling sites (mostly sportsbooks), where the site operators have been arrested and indicted in the US. Get a clue before you call me out with erroneous info.

Yes, detained, then released when the government did not let La get their man. Much different than being arrested.

There have been several arrests of online sportbooks execs over the last 10 years.

Again, you're just a little over dramatic.

Definition of arrest courtesy of the Delaware courts website:

"To take into custody by legal authority."

Do you even know why the definition of arrest is important? Because it changes your legal rights.

Another definition:

"This is when the police detain someone, telling them they are not free to leave until further notice. Often, an arrest will take place at the same time as a person is charged with an offence, but not necessarily."

BTW, in your previous post you said the people from BetOnSports were the only to have been arrested. At least you revised that in your last post. Now it is "several." lmao.
