I'm in the Philippines. So long as you block citizens of this country, you can operate here. The standard license fees are about $40,000 USD for the first year.

I think he can also , let someone else manage hosting and everything, so its outside canada. And manage the site himself, like he is working for a site which is based overseas.
He's gotten more than one offer to do just that. I'm guessing he's going to take his time deciding on which one, or to see if some new site that looks promising comes up.

What jurisdiction allows gambling?  None that I know of, but I'm not in this field.

Several in South America.

Probably quite a few small islands countries as well

Ecuador?  I amended my question to make it clear we're talking about online gambling by an unlicensed entity.  Very hard to do.  Recall Canada was a loophole (see this thread).  Dooglas escaped by the skin of his teeth IMO, as the Canadian gaming industry was trying to shut him down fast.  Where in South America?

What jurisdiction allows online gambling by anybody?  None that I know of, but I'm not in this field.  Arguably Canada was a loophole that was closed.  But are there any other "Canadas" out there?  I can't think of any.  What country?  Certainly not any EU country.  Nor North or South America.  Nor China and the ex-communist countries.  The only country I can think of as I type this might be some African country maybe?

With all those scams it really would be best if dooglus just comes back. Sure, PD may be trusted, I guess, but a monopoly never is good. We need competition. And every new site is inherently untrustworthy. They really need to build up a positive reputation and trust first!

dooglus is indeed trustworthy and him and his wife are good people (I went through this thread).  But you are not thinking through your analysis carefully enough.

Logically, if dooglus comes back and sets up a dice shop, you should not invest a single sashimi with him.  Reason?  douglas did Just-Dice.com because it was borderline legal in Canada at the time.  But the laws changed, requiring registration and all kinds of hassle, making such dice shops illegal.  If he comes back a second time, and has not registered with the authorities (which is unlikely for a btc business), then he has crossed the line into criminality.  Anybody who goes from being honest to dishonest cannot be further trusted. 

he also can change his nationality to some country where run dice sites is legal

I think he's following the law, at least where he is. If he wanted to lead, then he'd be running in parliament. That's too much headache.

yes but parliament people aren't thinkers, thus no headaches...... Wink

KingOfSports, you seem like an OK guy, so how did you get the below red flag next to your name?  I'm curious how this would happen, is it a troll who decides to smear you? Or maybe, like in business, if you do enough business eventually some a hole will be displeased for some reason?

It's a strange story.

KoS struggled with gambling addiction. From what I can remember, he claims that he deliberately damaged his reputation so that people wouldn't lend him coins to gamble with.

I believe the dude made him a loan of like 2btc, but sent it to him twice.  KoS being the degin that he is justified paying him back half the bitcoins, but since there was no agreement for the other two coins that they where just freebies  Roll Eyes lol (or the story is very close to along those lines.)

Moral of the story:

Click the send button once.
I suffered from gambling addiction. Now I just invest and keep my distance from it all mostly. I have a girlfriend, life and everything going for me. The story is similar to what was described however the one thing not mentioned is that I still have made offers to end the whole dispute. When I lost that night, I paid back the 2 BTC owed and disappeared for weeks (I went to rehab a week later). Bitcoin at the time was $125 per coin. When I came back to Bitcoin and learned all of what had happened to my rep and such I made the person who made the loan to me, an offer, $275 in BTC which was 2 BTC + 10% for the delay for the unagreed upon BTC. In the month or two I was completely gone from BTC and the whole world, BTC had shot up from $125 to $500+. The person who had made the mistake of clicking send twice did not even consider he had messed up and that my offer was completely awful and stuck to 2 BTC owed, a profit of 5+ his mistake in value. I refused, my rep tarnished.

We both made mistakes, my offer still stands and he will still always refuse it I'm sure. If BTC collapses to $137.50 per coin, I will send 2 BTC to his wallet address in his forum account as a kind gesture.

I have traded thousands, escrowed (when I was trusted) as much as $5000 at a time, and helped others in many ways. I was not out to scam anyone, if that had been the case I would have gotten someone for a lot more. I disagree with my forum rating and I wish personally the red would go away so I could do a forum campaign but alas it probably won't.

but dooglus, you may be the only one who can save this industry.
We all understand the confidence we have in a trustworthy operator. But for example, look at your own signature. And the next one that appears, that one could also "save this industry".

Yes please Dooglus. I want to reinvest 10 BTC with you Dooglus. I also acquired 85 more BTC and would like to put it in a 3 month FREEZE account and see what my return is.
