I wish you could have seen Kaplan's fat ass sister walking through Mall San Pedro with Costa Rican bodyguards like she was such a VIP, so important and self-absorbed and arrogant. Those clowns thought it would go on forever. What a merry band of fuckups...G, his sister, Crazy lou and the rest.
rumors all rumors..... I just dont care about them i care about the money owed to the people tha used to work there, and I care what Costa Rica Gov is going to do to help. (as usual NOTHING)...
I care about the money owed to the players, thats all..
I think that maybe all ex boss personell should write a letter to CR gov. to the USA GOV and to UK GOV, to see which one could do something in their support.

Then why the full page ad (not cheap, I'm sure) in the Dec 29 edition of USA Today, page 10A which lists all of their "...net web sites and telephone betting services" and includes "If you have a wagering account with ... please call .... to arrange a refund."
If they intended to stiff the world - why buy a full page ad that had to cost thousands?
Go buy a paper and look it up.
BTW, I on the hook with MVP for $900.

In any case, an RX Admin ought to post a scan of that USA Today page. USA Today online does not have this ad.
I just called them. They said they would start paying late Jan - early Feb. He said to call back 1/28. Of course, I am holding my breath.

BETonSPORTS PLC
Update
The Board of Directors of BETonSPORTS plc, the on-line gaming company announced today that it has reached agreement with the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri on the form of a Permanent Injunction relating to its US facing businesses. This replaces the Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) issued on 17th July 2006 with which BETonSPORTS plc also complied by ceasing to trade in the US.
While the Company has agreed to the Permanent Injunction, it is important to note that this has been done without the Company admitting to or contesting any of the allegations contained within the Complaint. The Company is an investment holding company and has not itself undertaken any gaming activities. Furthermore most of the alleged offences in the Complaint took place before the Company started to trade in July 2004.
The Board has agreed to accept a Permanent Injunction:-
• on the basis of legal advice in the USA and the UK;
• as it is seen as a major step in the negotiation to settle the outstanding criminal action against the Company;
• so that it can concentrate on trying to deliver some value for shareholders from its continuing Asian operations.
The Company has, as a result of this order, stated:-
• That following on from its announcement of 11th August 2006 and having complied with the TRO the Company is completing the closure of its Costa Rica and Antiguan operations;
• That its Antiguan subsidiary continues with its efforts to repay customers although this remains dependant on collection of monies from processors and other debtors;
• It will, as part of the Permanent Injunction, agree to a plan with the DoJ for its Antiguan subsidiary to pay customers based on money recovered.
