Sportsbook.com guarantees
"business as usual" as company is bought
by management and private investors
DUBLIN, Ireland, Oct.
12 -- The management
team of Sportsbook.com, the largest online sportsbook
and casino on the planet, today announces its
successful leveraged management buyout of sportsbook.com
and other U.S. facing brands from Sportingbet
Plc. Sportsbook.com will now operate as a private
company with offices in Dublin, Antigua, Vancouver
and San Jose, Costa Rica.
As a result of new U.S.
legislation aimed at preventing financial institutions
from handling transactions with online gaming
companies, Sportsbook.com's parent company Sportingbet
Plc has decided to cease accepting wagers from
customers in the United States, effective immediately.
Sportsbook.com, now in private
hands, remains open for business for its customers.
Sportingbet sold sportsbook.com to the existing
management team and a group of investors who will
continue to run the company in the same innovative
way that has twice earned it eGaming Review's
award as the number one U.S. facing sportsbook.
Transactions continue to
remain secure, all personal information remains
completely confidential and customer accounts
are safe.
Sportsbook.com values the
support and enthusiasm of its customers and the
new owners of the company intend to respect and
continue to earn their trust.
Hi XXXX,
With the recent passing of
law effecting financial institutions' transactions
with online gaming companies, Sportsbook.com's

bet on sports or play blackjack online anymore
at Sportsbook.com? Hell no.

Sportsbook.com to the existing management team
and a group of investors who are continuing to
run Sportsbook.com just as always - or perhaps
even better than before.
