    Tony, owner of 5Dimes has had a lot of bad things to say about BetED..no way would he ever consider "bailing them out."

    Your priorities seem misconstrued, you should just hope you see your balance again in some way, shape, or form.

    A few guys across the street made a prediction that Lou, Freedom, etc were just blowing smoke and that no deal was going to get done today.  I hoped (and am still hoping) that they are wrong.  There are still a few hours left today...Lets keep our fingers crossed guys.

    IMO, if this doesnt get done soon it wont get done. And if Lou and Freedom are truely making this shit up, covers will lose all credibility with me and many many others, as if they had much left.

    I thuly believe they'll get something good done (hopefully in the nest day or two).  If not, it is pretty shitty because supposedly other forums had deals in place.  All we can do now is hope for the best

    Two points to make:
    - This is a big decision for the bailing-out party. It involves thousands of customers and large amounts of money. You can't rush this. We were told that they hoped to make an announcement today, but if it takes another day, so be it. It hasn't even been three weeks yet. I know it seems like light-years for you folks, but I'm ecstatic we are this close so soon.

    - The other forums are lying. They had no deals in place. I know this for a fact. They have a couple of rejected offers from people who now have an axe to grind and therefore are claiming to have made fantastic offers when really they were lowballing the customers.

    Sorry Dude. It's not my place to say.

    I wouldn't want that book to suddenly have 1000 people calling them for info on the bailout before they even made up their mind.

    Plus, they might change their mind and back out, making me look even more an idiot than I would by keeping my mouth shut.

    From Dozier at sbr...

    "Iv'e emailed mgt. at Covers with the names of the sportsbooks in case they really don't know, but they havent asked us. It seems they have BetEd's ear and the other books can't get a call back so maybe they can help get the parties together. Value for the helping book is lower every day."

    He has continuously said that there is at least one sportsbook with a deal laid out for beted.  Freedom, if this is true you guys should work WITH sbr to get this done rather than against them.  It looks like this is what they are trying to do by trying to communicate with you...but you guys are ignoring their emails.

    What an industry. No respect among alleged top forums towards each other and accusations galore when there is heat in the kitchen.  The only thing that is fact here is that Freedom guaranteed all Beted money back to players.

    Am watching this system closely.

    Dozier is full of shit. I haven't received jack from him. I'm management.

    Look, we predicted this would happen last week, didn't we?

    I think Lou said something along the lines of, as soon as a deal is going to be in place, everybody is going to come out of the woodwork with unverifiable claims that they offered better deals - because after they get rejected there is no use in telling the truth, is there?

    Here is an industry fact...

    Right now, it's a Nuclear Winter for sportsbooks. After the poker and betED situations, they are scared shitless to advertise for fear of attracting attention from the Feds, so they are holing up and holding their advertising dollars to themselves and waiting until football to come - if it ever comes.

    So, they are slowly watching their players drain their accounts, and are afraid of marketing themselves to attract new customers. Not a great situation.

    With that in mind, these betED players that are available are pure fresh meat. They are the wildebeests hanging around the only waterhole in the Serengeti.

    The sportsbooks don't want to pay too much for them, because they need to save their cash and it's going to be an expensive bailout. But on the other hand, they are sick to death watching one lucky operation go in there and gain access to all of betED's players.

    Do you think that maybe there is a little bit of professional jealousy going on? Of course there is.

    And these guys also know that the betED players are never going to be 100% happy with any bailout - nobody would be - so this is a perfect opportunity to instill as much fear, uncertainty and doubt into the betED players and hopefully a few of them will jump ship over to a different operation.

    So they are spreading as much bullshit and lies and half-truths as they can. Hey, it's cheaper than paying for a bailout, isn't it?

    It ain't pretty, but that's what is happening.
