    (shares down 30%)

    Perhaps this will motivate PartyGaming to improve their affiliate support, and stop playing around with their promised LIFETIME payouts. I know I’ve been questioning sending them my traffic.

    PartyGaming said it will lower its spending on advertising and marketing and prioritise customer retention.

    then a wise place to start would be to address the issues raised here at cap.

    I am one step from taking them down.

    I will see if I cannot grab someone in Vegas – I have been asked to meet but it conflicts with too many plans.

    PHew .. lots to read there ..

    They made $430m … for a profit of $183m .. in the last 6 months.

    Somewhere I read the stock issue cost $62m to do ?!!
    We are in the wrong business !!
    :hmmm:

    They claim to be up 80% for the year though (before share charges) … that’s a lucrative business.

    —-

    One cloud I see is that 87% of their business is in the US … which the article mentions that the US authorities claim is lillegal … seems to raise a huge warning flag to me.
    :devil:

    Interesting thing is that the stock slump is nothing surprising … they are only earning around 4p per share and even after the slump they are still at 104p per share …

    That’s a P/E ratio of 26 and still seems high to me for a .com
    Err.. given past history and that US Legal issue.

    Finally, did anyone read … the group is seeking to expand into other countries as well as diversifying away from its core poker market …

    Other countries i understand … but just how do they get away from poker? Casino’s .. Bingo … ???
