He thinks the stock is going up. I wouldn't read too much into it though-- it could just mean they're expecting good quarterlies or something.

It means he no longer sees a profit from dumping his existing stock and sees value in exercising some options he owns.

Given the back room buzz in LV, at the recent convention, I'd say the talks are progressing nicely.

"Given the back room buzz in LV..."

Okay, Perez Hilton, tell us you were there to hear it.

(Given the recent Harrahs reported run at a piece of Rank, your "insider scoop" is a bit dated.)

I love sarcasm!

There was more details discussed than made the papers and published reports

I'm no shill nor lover of PP. IMO there software was dog poop, and the owners have an inflated opinion of the value of their aging customer list.

IMO poker players individually and as a group are too greedy for their own good.

Any US based site, with US banking laws controlled easy deposits, would OWN the US poker market and a decent portion of the world on-line market. How long that market share could be defended is highly questionable.

Get your own sources. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

No doubt, there always are. However, I still call "Poseur", for your "Gambling911-like" lack of any specificity or even basis for first hand knowledge.

I make no claims beyond my statements on a stockbroker's view of the OP story, and my personal opinion of the worth of PP to any gaming concern.

You are welcome to engage in name calling or cast aspersions on how I choose to present the above claims and your interpretation of my words, but I will not play that game.

You want more information about this or any other matter?

Again develop your own sources!

If he is acting on privileged information in deciding to buy or sell stock, then he is breaking the law.

He is manipulating the stock by making it look like he thinks its going up, and then when others buy he is going to sell the [censored] out of it and laugh like Dikshit did when he cashed out before the legislation passed the first time.
