Kenny no joking here but I would bet your plays instead of his. I think he is overrated now and new and better techy guys are more successful than him.

Good list Shrink. I would put you number 2 or 3 myself. If something happens in the industry, everyone turns to you. I think in the coming years government people and regulators will become must-adds to a list like this, but for now most aren't even on the radar screen. Thankfully so in the case of idiots like Kyl.

As the late Rodney Dangerfield would say Phoenix Sports and it's "10 gaming network sites" get "no respect".

What the hell are you trying to say? Get the marbles out of your mouth and put them back in your head.

Canuck,

I just now noticed your list and virtually all of them would be on my TOP 20...

In fact, it was hard to leave Billy Scott out this year, as he had always been in my previous TOP 10 lists...

No matter who makes the list, you would have to leave out some very influential people for a TOP 10...

Judge,

Coach huh? :smoker2:

The Pinnacle story is incredible..

With my 2 books I try extremely hard to be competitive..

Pinnacle is like Panasonic..slightly ahead of our time..They offer so many futures, and betting options, its tough to compete..

They definitely raised the bar..

Kenny The Judge is an offshore experienced veteran so I would take his posts very seriously. You and I do not see I to eye but I am in the top 20 like it or not.

I got Krackman in it also and some other posters I will not mention now

Shrink,

Yes, very hard to keep it to 10, the list is good. Not to put a damper on it, but i do find allot of the old school and new school offshore books and players think that the USA is the center on offshore gambling. Not an insult, just a comment after years of watching the postings.

Canuck

"prediction" with India and China opening up more internet commerce and the access increasing by 10 fold yearly the access to pc's with internet, the USA will be third place within 5 years on internet gambling gross wagering.

I had to weigh in on this list. "Henry" from Pinnacle would still be hiding out in Spain if it weren't for ***** of Heritage, and ******, and ******* of Horizon. **** and **** started Pinnacle in a back room of Royal with 8 phone lines with ***** backing the operation. After establishing Pinnacle in 1 football season, all three were forced to leave. Henry contribution was making Pinnacle a player in the betting out portion of industry. So when you rank Henry as one of the most influential people in the industry, you should temper that judgement with the fact that Henry doesn't know how to run a computer

He has done well for himself....no doubt, but he made it stepping on the backs of many people.
