The casino is not a new issue although many of the casino affilates have not heard. Various poker affiliates have. The casino didnt stop paying, the cardroom did. Effective Media "manages" as they like to put it, both an online poker room and online casino. People only go to these extremes to hide their affiliations when they have done something wrong. Lou and Warren Have sent C&D's Have banned their own members Have banned other respected members in the industry such as Rebecca Deleted threads on their forums. Edited threads on their forums Made a video stating they have no relationship whatsoever with CardSpike Recanted their original video with a new one which says they are only working "performance based" Created threads themselves explianing their side of the story and locking them so that no discussion could take place Seriously, who does this. Whether they owned it or not, the very fact that they were closely tied to the cardroom and a casino should raise questions and going to the extent they have to cover up the situation makes it worse.

This is quite a heavy allegation: "Dear Affiliates/Affiliate Programs, For years, Lou Fabiano and Warren Jolly, both principle owners of www.CasinoAffiliatePrograms.com, have used their authority to squeeze out a number of affiliate programs from this industry - some of which were well-deserved, others not so much. Sometimes their decisions were based on purely merit (or lack thereof), but most of the time, the term "Rogue" was loosely awarded to any affiliate program that was unwilling to pay their hefty advertising fees,, or should I say, "Certification" fees." Is their any corroboration of this? This is criminal extortion, money for threats. Also this: "As of late, CAP has stooped to an even lower level. By owning, operating, managing, or at the very least, having a financial interest in a so-called "Certified" Casino (www.AbsoluteSlots.com) and "Certified" Poker Room (www.CardSpike.com) threatens the integrity of the affiliate marketing model altogether, Many of you question whether this is true or not??? I have verifiable evidence that Lou Fabiano and Warren Jolly, the principle owners of CAP, have a major stake in both sites." The issue is the "verifiable"; can you verify it? The AbsoluteSlots allegation is also new to me; same question: verification?

Did I miss something? Because I think you definitely did! Without the efforts of the PPA the poker universe in the US would be blind and a tiger without teeth. I have never seen any evidence by any other poker related group passing federal legislation, lobbying on behalf of not just their million members but all poker players, or defending players at large that are swept up by antiquated state gaming laws. Gaming911 should be ashamed of yourself for publish this kind of sensational dribble in order to advance your misguided and flawed uneducated opinions on the matter. Quite your complaining and help those poker players that actually do try and help. Alan

oh now there's a real upstanding person Marc Lesnick, such good company this industry keeps you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours no matter what.

All business aside this is as truly heartless and sick analogy to make. As someone with many Jewish friends any reference to the horrible events of the Holocaust are completely out of line. It is entirely out of bounds to discredit and demean someones Faith and Heritage. This comment made by Warren Jolly was truly disgusting; regardless of the accusations made.

We were told the same thing and were advised that it is essential to advertise with them or - i refused to advertise as i am the provider of income to my affiliate partners and not them - and to be honest i do a lot more for my affiliate partners than they do - even without taking into account recent issues surfacing . Have some balls and tell them to bugger off . Oh yeah they banned me from the forum as well - big deal - there are other forums that are vastly more productive in terms of business and no cliques or eye watering charges - check out the GIA

Lets be honest, wherever Bodog started from it was a good book and a success story. The same apllies in a smaller way to 911, which has I remember used to have an office in the Betonsports HQ. Did G give it an helping hand, who knows?

Good eye, it isn't even a close approximation. I was at the same table with her during WSOP last summer. This definitely not her.

To set a few things straight... Calvin was orginally a programmer that DESIGNED some gaming software for a few early online shops, he then left them- taking the software AND the player lists- and opened Bodog, his FIRST try at it. Second, Bodog marketing was EVERYWHERE, which is why the US Government took notice of him in the firts place. He did articles with GQ and Cigar AFF magazine, they went to sporting events with Hummers painted with their logos, Gambling 911 accounted for less then 3% of BoDog marketing- Get real. These established Sportsbooks are making MILLIONS and MILLIONS each year....Nine.com was a medium size book and sold for $57 milliion, Gambling 911 profits range in the 6 , not 7 figures, lets say closer to $***,*** a year. With almost 65% of americans and canadians gambling, Gambling 911 rates as a nose hair in the gaming industry!!!! Dont forget that. FInally, if the industry is ever legalized, these sportsbook review sites wont mean a thing and all will be out of business, advertising on TV, direct mail, and just about everywhere else will take root and these sites will be useless the day they announce it's regulated

Warren Jolly disgusts me with his Holocaust comparison. In addition to his bullying of industry members, lying to the industry, and attempted SICK sexual advances on various women in this industry, he's gone on to insult a whole race of people...THE HUMAN RACE! Someone should *******!

" including popular representative, Rebecca Liggero, out of the CAP free parties during their London event later this month." weird, she is a sweetheart

*Maybe* Fabiano's home address was listed because something illicit was taking place there? From what I understand, he works out of his home. I don't think Corfman would list an address unless it meant something.... He's never listed any one else's address... Just a thought. Also, my understanding is that IF a USA company or individual was running an online casino from the US and IF they were taking bets from americans, the IRS penalty is 3 times the wagering amounts. So if your casino had $100,000 in wagers, and you made $10,000 profit, the IRS will penalize you $300,000....that or jail.
