If its true then US players got their cash out just in time and now the European players are the ones left holding the bag.

lol kevmath, is your reliable twitter source another guy who said "i have a reliable twitter source"...

i hardly think this is reliable, especially since the first guy who twittered it actually called it DOJ instead of OIJ by mistake...

I think you should wait a little while before spreading panic on some unanmed "reliable twitter source"... lol twitter, reliable?

@ckrafcik, Chris Krafcik who's written for several gambling business publications was the source in question.

I also have DM's from someone in CR confirming the details.

Krafcik also has noted they've gone after UB/AP affiliate offices in Costa Rica.

At least US players got paid from stars before this. So lame for everyone who has money on any of these sites.
