calvin ayre could stop all this madness....

HuskerFan1 · Jan 17, 2007

in about a week....if he stepped up to the plate and opened the next neteller...and charged a small fee to send to every other book and zero fees to send to his bodog...

he has the money and he has the balls to take on the US GOVT...

i hope he reads this thread.....it would without question be the easiest billion he's made to date....

He doesnt have to take on the US government at all as long as he doesnt come to the United States.

We know 3 things:

The DOJ would like to arrest all offshore bookies.
The DOJ will arrest you if you come here.
The DOJ can not arrest you elsewhere. If they could he would be in jail.

he dropped 200 large for a week in bali....

i only caught the last 10minutes im sure they will rerun it...this guy lives the fu-king dream...

further reason why the simple chance of being sentenced to jail cell is even less appealing

I'd be freaking ecstatic if I could fed ex him my money and all books were willing to take it.

Whoson1st · Jan 17, 2007

Is he bigger than the owner of Pinnacle?

HuskerFan1 · Jan 17, 2007

vh1 said he's worth 2billion....i dont think anyone is bigger than he is...

da1prophet · Jan 17, 2007

The 2 billion number is probably a stretch, but he ain't hurtin' for bucks. Would love to see him get into the payment processing business...

Whoson1st · Jan 17, 2007

I wish him the very best--I like Ayre.
But one thing puzzles me--and I'm not claiming to have any info that anyone else does not have.
But--The owner of Pinnacle was probably as low key as one could be--no interviews, no cover shots on magazines --and yet was LOVED by absolutely everyone that I evr read.
Not to say Bodog isn't top notch, but to mention this company in the same sentence with Pinnacle, as a comparison; I'd have to say: I just don't get it!

sean1 · Jan 17, 2007

He built a huge ass company on marketing.

He can not be touched if he stays offshore.

Except when it was mentioned on the Sopranos on HBO.

Saw the same show. My girlfriend thought it was Calvin KLINE.

He had two half naked hotties trolling him around 24/7.

I wonder how much he pays them to be his "friends"?

sean1 · Jan 17, 2007

Dreamer?

What you think the DOJ hasnt wanted him for a long time?

They were purported to be sisters :bunnies:

neverbeanother#7 · Jan 17, 2007

They are going to go after this guy one way or another.He's too cocky and i'm sure the feds got a hard on for him. He would make a nice catch for them. I would wager he is in U.S custody within 12 months.

HuskerFan1 · Jan 17, 2007

i dont think he can be touched either if he stays in the right countries...

Whoson1st · Jan 17, 2007

If the United States Government decides they want him---he'd best check with Osama BinLaden for a hiding place.
Get Real!

SamOdom · Jan 17, 2007

Anyone here met "Calvin" face to face? He is a small guy and is real friendly.

da1prophet · Jan 17, 2007

I know a few people that used to work for him in one capacity or another....like most extremely successful people he has his issues but they all said he was as sharp as they come.
