England Reveal India Plans

England Reveals India PlansThe England Cricket Board has revealed England will face India in four Tests and two Twenty20s before Christmas and five one-day internationals early in 2013.

England will travel to Dubai on October 25 for a three-day training camp before arriving in Mumbai for their first tour match on October 30. They will play two more first-class matches ahead of the Test series.

Andrew Strauss’ men face India in the first Test in Ahmedabad on November 15 before travelling to Mumbai (23-27), Kolkata (December 5-9) and Nagpur (13-17) for the remaining Tests.

England have a quick turnaround ahead of the T20 internationals in Pune and Mumbai (December 20 and 22). The tourists fly home for Christmas on December 23.

Following a short break, England arrive back in India on January 3 and play two 50-over tour matches as they prepare for the one-day series, which begins in Rajkot on January 11.

England take on India in the second ODI in Kochi on January 15 before heading to Ranchi (19), Dharamshala (23) and Mohali (27). England continue a busy winter in New Zealand in February.

"This will be England’s first full tour of India since 2008 and I am sure that cricket fans in both countries will be eagerly anticipating an exciting series of contests in all three formats of the game, " said ECB managing director Hugh Morris.

"ECB will also be seeking to finalise an England Performance Programme camp in India before Christmas which will help prepare members of both our Test and T20 squads."

The odds betting already has England as outsiders for their winter tour given their inconsistent record on the sub continent.

They endured a nightmare tour of India four years ago – with public fallouts and terror attacks overshadowing a 5-0 ODI whitewash and a 1-0 Test series defeat.

They also had mixed results and scores in the UAE and Sri Lanka last winter, with the hot and humid conditions as well as the hard, dry pitch, making life tough for Andy Flower’s men.

Tiger Moth Flight

Although Topboss Blog is mainly a gambling blog – sometimes we feel the need to try something different – so in March 2012 some of the Topboss staff decided to venture out on a Tiger Moth flight. What an experience that was. The Tiger Moth in question is a bright yellow, 1940 Tiger Moth ZS-OSS1941 called “Tweety” who was quite an active little plane during WWII.

We all had to be up at 5am to be at the Jack Tayler Airfield in Krugersdorp by 6:30. It turned out to be quite a misty morning and visibility was very poor on the drive there, but it was a spectacular scene from the cockpit of the Tiger Moth. We each had our 30 minutes in the air with “Tweety” and her masterful pilot Martiens Steyn, who gave us interesting information during the flight about the Cradle of Humankind, the majestic Magalies Mountain Range and game that we flew over.

In between the flights, Peter who is Martiens’ son made sure we were safe at all times while standing next to the runway. Peter was also very helpful in answering all sorts of questions we had about the Tiger Moth. We learned that she was used by trainee pilots in WWII who were training to become Spitfire and other fighter pilots.

Flying in this little plane gave us a sense of what it must have been like back then, and you can’t help but stand in awe of her.

All in all it was an awesome experience and definitely worth doing again.

Sportsbook No Deposit Bonus Options

Sportsbook No Deposit Bonus TypesThere are several types of No Deposit Bonuses at sportsbooks and these Bonuses are awarded in the form of free bets, but there are some differences.

Betting sites also offer players different amounts of free bets, which usually start with the lowest limit of $25.

Online Gambling’s Second Chance

Not so long ago, the odds looked dim for legal online gambling in the US. Online poker lobbyists were pushing their own interests, which often meant denouncing online gambling as exclusively luck-based and therefore not in the same league with online poker which is skill-based. The dark days of illegal online gambling on offshore sites and at shady online casinos may soon be over though. An interesting DoJ ruling, which came just before Christmas last year, opened the way to the potentially legalization of online gambling, possibly this year. The DoJ’s ruling concerned the 1961 Wire Act, which – together with the 2006 UIGEA – formed the legal basis of the online gambling and online poker prohibition of recent years. As the legal haze around the whole thing was far from translucent, specialists often speculated that both online poker and gambling were in fact still legal in the US under the existing framework. No legal authority ever troubled clarifying anything in regards to the online gambling/poker case. It appears though that the DoJ has finally had enough of the legal ambiguity and decided to make a few things clear for everyone. According to the above said December ruling, the 1961 Wire Act does not prohibit real money wagering through online channels across state lines. It only prohibits sports betting wagers, and that was indeed the target of the lawmakers who had drafted the Wire Act back in the days.

Nevada had already passed legislation aimed at regulating online gambling and poker and so did DC, and with New Jersey eyeing a similar move, this may all just be the tip of the iceberg.

The question now no longer seems to be whether or not online gambling will be legalized and regulated in 2012, but rather on what level this will happen. The DoJ ruling has virtually unshackled states in the matter: any state that wants to can now legalize and regulate online gambling. Federal lawmakers are currently well aware of the fact that they need to make a move soon if they intend to push through federal regulation, otherwise the states may just beat them to it and regulate things for themselves. Federal-level legalization and regulation would be the preferred way to go according to many, as it would offer better safeguards against illegal and problem gambling and it would tackle regulation issues much more efficiently.

The path that led to the above said DoJ ruling was an interesting one: the ruling came in response to a question the states of New York and Illinois addressed to the DoJ. The two states were seeking clarification in the matter of lottery tickets and the Wire Act’s applicability over the online trading of these tickets. The resulting response was obviously a blessing for the online poker and online gambling industries. The possibilities opened by the ruling are truly bewildering indeed. Sites legalized and regulated in the US will not only be able to accept players from other states, they will also be able to accept players from outside the US. The potential for growth for such operations will therefore be quite limitless.

Affiliates will pop up too and old affiliates will be revived. The entire industry will finally breathe a sigh of relief, like a poker prop does when the monthly rake rebate lands in his poker account. He’s a smart online poker player!

What has been happening at Topboss in the past 6 months

It is hard to believe that we last did a Topboss update in December 2010 – time certainly flies!

What has Topboss been up to during the past 6 months? Quite a lot actually – there has been some good and some bad, but let us start with the bad so that we can end off on a positive note!

Simply put – Our industry is in turmoil at the moment – The online gambling industry was left reeling on April 15 2011, which has been dubbed as “Black Friday” when The US Justice Department unsealed an indictment against the founders of 3 of the largest poker rooms – Full Tilt Poker, Absolute Poker and Poker Stars, seizing their domain names, freezing accounts and shutting them down. A week later they seized various bingo and casino sites which were all allowing USA players. In many cases they arrested the owners and charged them with money laundering offences under the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act ( UIGEA )

As a result, American gamblers were left without a legitimate place to bet online and were left wondering if they will ever see the money they have in accounts tied to the now frozen websites. This resulted in many other online casinos closing their doors before they were next on the grizzly Department of Justice list.

One of the programs which closed down was Best Casino Partner, but the problem is that they shut down their affiliate program and did not pay affiliates ( including ourselves ) but they continue to operate their casinos and are still taking deposits from players!! Read more about this at Topboss Affiliates.

We also had a blow of our own by having to hand over our white label casino – 32 Royal.com to 32 Red PLC who threatened to sue us if we did not hand the domain over to them as they apparently have a trademark on the number “32” . What Judge in their right mind can grant a trademark on a number???? But be that as it may – it was not worth fighting them as 32 Vegas who are owned by William Hill suffered the same fate after a long drawn out court case. The worst of it is that 32 Red had the cheek to send out a press release announcing the seizure of our domain, which makes our blood boil further!!

On the South African front – Piggs Peak announced the date for the appeal of the judgement against them which will determine whether it will be legal for online gamblers from South Africa to play at their casinos. We are keeping our fingers crossed that they win their appeal.

Now onto the good news!

Topboss MediaIn March 2011 we changed our name from Topboss Online to Topboss Media, as this is what we are about – media and advertising. We launched our new website – Topboss Media and our aim is to get a bigger presence on social media networks. You can now find us on Facebook – Topboss Media ( still a work in progress ) and Topboss Group and Twitter – Topboss and Topboss Media.

Did you know that Topboss also does Internet Banner Design ? We already design banners for many of the online casinos – static banners and flash banners, but we offer banner design for any industry – If you have a website and want to advertise your business on other websites – you need banners! Contact us for a quote. Our rates are reasonable.

We haven’t launched as many new websites as we normally do as we have been spending our time revamping and updating our existing websites, but of course we couldn’t resist adding a few new sites to our portfolio so here they are:

Casino Pounds is dedicated to UK Casinos , Online Casino Advisor is a general online casino review site and our 3 new blogs are Ipod Gaming, Blog Online Casinos and Blog Slots.

We are also still busy with our Frontpage to Dreamweaver conversion and have now completed Rand Casinos, Play in Euro, Casinos on the Web, Club 777 and Topboss UK

We have a new addition to our team – Tamaryn who is the Personal Assistant to the owners and does all of our video editing. Welcome to Topboss Tamaryn!

Well thats all folks – until our next update ……
