The world series of darts on Fox Sports (I swear this is on-topic)

Just watching the world series of darts on FSN (I'm very bored) and I noticed it was sponsored by Ladbrokes.COM

Every poker program i've seen that's advertised online gambling has been .NET

How have they gotten away with this?

An educated guess - because this is an event taped and broadcast in the UK, and just rebroadcast here in the states. Their gambling laws are alot looser.

True, but i figured they'd at least try to blur out the offending .com

Or maybe FSN isn't afraid of the DOJ

Every gambling site using .net to advertise in the US. That is the website to sign up for play money [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Not too hard to figure out the rest to play for real.

Wow, and I thought I was pretty good. Compared to this guy I suck a$$. Although I did hit 7 20's in 1 round of cricket last week.
