Give your thoughts please. I'm cashing out tomorrow, and trying to figure out how much I should take out before the super bowl. betCRIS is probably the most stable after Pinny left the market. Will they close up shop, too? Who is most/least likely to close up shop in your eyes?

The Pioneers of offshore that are left are 5 Dimes, The Greek, CRIS and WSEX - I will remain fully loaded at all 4 plus others.

folds or leaves the USA market, there is a big difference there. I cant see them folding, thats for sure.

You can wager on which book will be next to leave the USA market at tradesports.com

I'll take No fold at -550 for the limit and open up 5 more accounts to take it again and again at the limit.

Thanks.

Can't see a fold or leaving US, but they are the only CR book that could even consider dumping US, CRIS and 5D both offer enough to have some non-US customers, the others in CR... No way they exist for long without their US clients.

Remember Bodog , WSEX,and Greek are not in CR.

Who are the big CR books after CRIS, Sportsbook.com, and 5D ?

I'm thinking Wagerweb,Cascade, Skybook, probably forgetting somebody large.

After that you get into lots of small operators that absolutely need US clients.

Look at the "BID" column.....

if the number is very low, that means according to the market makers that book is LEAST likely to leave the USA market, if the number is higher, that book is "More Likely" to leave the USA market.

If you take Betcris as an example, the Bid is currently '20'. If they wind up leaving the USA market first, those contracts will be worth '100', so that means if you accept that bid you are getting +500 that Betcris leaves the USA market before those other books.... (none is also an option)

So if im reading this right, the odds from higest to lowest leaving would be:

BODOG
BETCRIS
Sportsbook
Greek
Wsex

With none of them leaving in the middle of the pack

you are missing "NONE" which is also an option available, the bet is which will happen before the Dec 31 2007 so you have to add 'NONE' bellow Betcris but above Sportsbook.....

also, you may want to look at "Last" instead of "BID" because "LAST indicates where the shares last traded it. (I dont think it changes the order)

correct order:

BODOG
BETCRIS
NONE
Sportsbook
Greek
Wsex


edit: I just noticed that you did mention the "NONE" option at the end of your post.

Choptalk,

I dont think you can read much into thse markets, as I dont think there is much trading going on at all in these markets.
