Well it's a good thing it's just Calvin Ayre and the US Govt doesn't spend any other money on anyone who isn't a US citizen.

"Shocked *– shocked! *– by this discovery, Gustafsson concluded that Bodog Asia was a clever front for an online gambling operation, rather than the Ikea branch office Gustafsson believed he’d signed on to manage."

A Claude Raines moment, similar to the WSOP learning that $20+ million in entry fees annually came from "shady overseas poker" operators like PokerStars.

Calvin Ayre is also in the top 10 most wanted list of Homeland Security, looks like he will never travel to the USA for life.

I am wondering to which countries he can't travel anymore besides the USA, anyone knows of he will be arrested if he goes to Europe or Canada?

Hey did you hear a huge hurricane devastated New Orleans recently? I think they called it Katy, or Katherine, or something like that.

See: Kim Dotcom as to just how far US Reach can be if it wants to. In that case, the US basically Puppet-Stated the entire nation of New Zealand because Hollywood is a massive political donor and Kim Dotcom was trolling the **** out of them with Megaupload.

If you're on the Most Wanted List in the US, you'd better not travel anywhere in Western Europe, that's for sure. An Italian national who had some sort of price-fixing arrangement with a Japanese company was indicted in the US on anti-trust charges per US law and extradited when he flew into Germany (I think it was)

See: Romano Pisciotti

In short, its only a matter of time, unless he holes up somewhere safe and for the duration of his entire life, the political climate there remains sufficiently hostile to the US that they never cooperate. With each passing day, the likelihood that he gets arrested approaches 1.

Even if he gets arrested it will just be a black friday situation all over again. He'll be facing 25 felonies, 200 years in prison, and up to $5billion in fines. No charges will stick and he'll buy his freedom for $500million, sign a document admitting no wrong doing, and sail off into the sunset.

You act like homeboy has anywhere near 500 million. When the justice department throws a crap load of felonies at you, they expect at least some of them to stick. In most cases, they do.

This is just some fighting between current and former Bodog people. I can't comment on the Brovada stuff as don't think that has anything to do with Manila ops and is totally separate in Kahnawake, but Bodog have NEVER in all their years not paid and I know they pride themselves on this. Local politics can be messy is all I will say and am not going to comment on who did/said what, but some of those posts look highly suspect.

The Bodog Asia business is long established and well funded so don't worry about being a customer of theirs.
