Gambling and the 20th century Rulers Part1.
The history of the 20th century is inseparably connected with wars, revolutions, forcible change of governments and other political cataclysms in which the leading role was often played by bright, extraordinary personalities – leaders, chiefs. Impetuous was also the history of legislative regulation of gambling games and bets. They were allowed, then prohibited, then allowed again…
A lot of these bans and legalizations were directly connected with the principle political acting personalities of the 20th century. How venturesome were the most famous totalitarian rulers of the previous century and what was their role in regulation of activities on organizing and playing games and bets?

Finding Free Money Bonuses and Rakeback
This is a subject that I’ve been meaning to write about for a long time. If you are playing online poker and not earning rakeback and/or bonuses, you are literally giving your money away. As most serious players understand: when you win a pot, the poker room will almost always take a cut of your winnings, usually 5% but sometimes as high as 10%, depending on the site or limit. You may not notice, but over time these cuts add up to a LOT of money, as outlined in the next example. Rakeback is a deal available at many sites (usually through their affiliates, with or without the site’s knowledge) that allows you to regain a fixed percentage of the Read the rest of this entry »

No CommentsThe Beatles are the Most Creative Band of All Time
BACKGROUND HISTORY: The first musical bands originated in New Orleans among black musicians who have traditionally been the innovators. The first jazz record ever recorded was by The Original Dixieland Jazz Band in 1917, and of course they were white because racism always rears its ugly head to hold black people back. But during the Roaring 20’s, young white people couldn’t resist the dance beat laid down by the black jazz bands. Fletcher Henderson, a black man, became the first band leader to achieve national fame possibly because he featured Louis Armstrong on trumpet. Duke Ellington, a classicly trained musician, brought a level of style and sophistication to jazz that hadn’t been seen before. But it wasn’t until Read the rest of this entry »

No CommentsUSA is worried about the online gambling popularity.
The topic of the USA struggle against on-line gambling industry disturbs the gambling community. There is the old Wire Act (1961) in force in the USA which prohibits to stake with the help of the phone, telegraph and other wire communication facilities outside the bounds of one’s own state. Gamblers consider that this ban does not apply to the Internet, whereas the official establishment has another opinion. American DOJ has forbidden advertising of casinos in search systems and on television, bank deposits in online casinos (not even forbade, rather than recommended very insistently, but it was a proposal which was not to be refused from).

No CommentsThe Man Who Disappears (GQ Magazine unedited version)
The first person Frank Ahearn ever disappeared was Ken. He spotted him at a Borders in north Jersey about three years ago – a pale, geeky-looking guy in a golf shirt and khakis, thumbing through a pile of books about Central America and
offshore banking. It took Frank about a half second to figure him out: Ken was skipping town.
“I betcha you’re going to buy a condo in Costa Rica,” Frank said to the man, his
voice low, so no one else could hear. “And bank in Belize.”
Ken’s slackened mouth curled into a big dumb O that almost made Frank laugh. He looked at Frank – a tall, longhaired guy dressed in black with a cartoonish Read the rest of this entry »
