Who are the most powerful men in the Offshore Gambling World (TOP 5)

[Journeyman]

Would anyone not have THE SHRINK on their short list?

I`m not talking bench presses either..

 

[IntuitionBET]

j-man - In the Sports forum world the Shrink is right up there.
In the sportsbook world...those names are not revealed as they are behind the scenes

 

[Buzzsaw]

Spiro - The Greek
Simon/Billy - WWTS
Harry (doesnt like his real name on forums) - Pinnacle
Alistair - VIP Group
Blandford - Sportingbet

These our my "newsmakers" for the next 12 months

 

[PanchoSanza]

Can't leave out the cigar, even though he is in the slam.

 

[Journeyman]

I knew Buzz would be all over this question..

 

[JudgeWapner]

Railbird and Miguel from Venetian Gold.The goat from Venetian Gold is a close third.

Yep Pancho...I was going to list Mickey by proxy. Actually, Mickey probably deserves a mention on his own standing. Outside of the rewards debacle he has done a great job in Cigar's absence.

 

[IntuitionBET]

Buzzsaw - Are you still here in Curacao?

I didn't any reviews on your site on the other books here like SirBet, Royal etc

What a dinner. Tell me you got a doggy bag too Buzz, wow!

 

[Buzzsaw]

IB,
I'm back from Curacao. It was a quick trip and I did not have the chance to see everyone. I wanted to see Royal and Sirbet but didn't get the chance.

I did meet with the heads of Pinnacle, VIP and WWTS on the trip and of course, didn't miss any meals

 

[IntuitionBET]

Buzzsaw next time you are here I would like to sit with you, my treat

THE TOP 5 IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER

Dana Corbo/Don Best Sports-- What would the offshore world be without access to the granddaddy of all lines services?

David Carruthers/ CEO BetOnSports-- Love or hate his book, his current push through New York and Washington and into political circles nationwide make him a man to take seriously.

Shrink/ CEO ThePrescription.com--The brains behind the most powerful, informative, tell it like it is website purtaining to the offshore gambling mecca.

Harry/Pinnacle Sports-- Pinnacle sets the standard by which all other books are measured. Nuff said.

Cole Turner/CEO Bodog-- Public relation specialist that is not shy of the limelight. His book Bodog is considered by most to be the most improved sportsbook over the last year of all top-notch books.

 

[Buzzsaw]

Dana is a good pick although it's a little sad that he would make the list. If BOS was to have a name on the list it would not be Carruthers would it? I think Kaplan is a deserving choice even though he is a goon.

The Shrink and Cole Turner? Ahead of Spiro and Blandford? Not a chance.... but both would make the top 20 I would think.

JJ GOLD

 

[ericdixon]

[WildBill]

1. Ken
2. Head of Neteller
3. Head of Western Union
4. John Kyl

5. Al Gore (cause he started the internet, haha)

 

[IntuitionBET]

eric17 - But jjgold says HE is the most important man in Offshore..in fact he has posted it 100's of times...so it's got to be true.

otherwise can't we SUE jjgold for posting FALSE statements???
