Found this little bit about it. I find his argument to be straight forward. It's not a bank or Credit Card company that "Loans" money. If anything it makes the interest on your Money!


Dutch's actions were much more than a "mistake". I would think it would be rule #1 in running an online site that the players' money would not be touched for any reason and would always be available to them. Even if the business was about to go under, the players should be able to be paid back. After all, the money the players had on deposit did not belong to Pokerspot, it was not an asset of the company.
