ISLE OF MAN - Microgaming announced today that it has terminated its software licence agreements with the Linx Media Group, with immediate effect. It has been advised that the group Companies are insolvent. Microgaming is presently gathering all facts relating to this matter and will provide further announcements as and when information becomes available.

Re: Eurolinx, BetOnBet bite the dust Wow - another set of players going to lose funds on a Microgaming Network problem? (I dont know anything beyond post 1 - so am guessing at the severity of it a little). It was interesting that in the letters page just this month in Inside Poker mag, they were defending Microgaming, saying that they "don't feel Microgaming did anything wrong" with relation to Tusk and was a victim. I agree that Ladbrokes are trustworthy (they manage the funds themselves and are a brand I trust), however, I increasingly view Microgaming as one of the least trustworthy networks out there. If they are going to keep doing business with skins out there without doing anything to protect their players funds (washing it off every time as "not our problem - speak to the liquidators and if you're lucky you may get a fraction of your funds back"), then there's nothing to stop this happening again and again! If microgaming are to be trusted then they need to ensure players funds are ring fenced and protected!! (It's our money that they hold on deposit - it's not theirs to spend and lose!!) Compare it to the case on the everleaf network when PokerTrillion went under - everleaf, a far smaller and probably less trusted network - players funds were ring fenced and no players lost any money - that's the way it should be!! (and I acknowledge the problems Blonde had with PT, however I still think it's great that despite going bust, Trillion players all got their money back!)
