Bodog.com shut down after judgment
FYI
I just saw this and thought I would pass the info along so no one gets put in a bad situation with Bowdog.com. Not that my advice matters, but I would not put any new money into a bodog account until the issues get resolved. If you would like to comment, please do so through

Bodog.com shut down after judgment
30 August 2007
“LAS VEGAS, Nevada -- Online gambling Web site Bodog.com has been down since Monday because of a $46.6 million default judgment obtained by Las Vegas-based 1st Technology in a patent infringement case.
The judgment issued June 13 in Nevada federal court was against Bodog Entertainment Group, S.A., Bodog.net and Bodog.com.
According to court filings, software downloaded by the Web site's customers to enable some of the gaming activities infringed on patents held by 1st Technology.
1st Technology is controlled by Los Gatos, Calif.-based Scott Lewis, who has a doctorate in adaptive digital signal processing from Oxford University.
Bodog.com entertainment, headquartered in the Caribbean nation of Antigua, is running off a new Web site, newbodog.com, launched Tuesday.
Lewis and his attorneys could not be reached for comment. “
“To temporarily solve the issue, customers will have to go to NewBodog.com instead where they can log in and play like they normally would.”
