BET/vse . . .It can work if they get creative about it. Instead of paying the winners in cash they could opt to pay them with prizes (of varying values) donated by advertisers. That works like a game show so it would be perfectly legit and the government couldn't do anything about it. Of course I don't know that that's what they have in mind. Lola:) PHNPI

I think so too, Ed. There is a big difference between the NHL okaying it for "provincial" lottery corporations and private ones. All of the betting websites I've seen on the net are located in a different jurisdiction (Antigua etc.). You can't even bet legally here on the net (unless the government runs it, that is.... hey, this is Canada, and all). So I cant see a pro sports league making any type of licensing move with a private company. A friend just RTO'd his company (DCKK-CDN) and they have a gambling site that is located offshore. There was no way for access from Canada for anything. They had to make sure all the t's were crossed and I's were dotted before they could even list. This is a hugely regulated business! Regards, Dean
