In July 2017, U.S. federal prosecutors dropped the felony charges against Calvin Ayre outlined in the story below. Ayre pleaded guilty to a misdemeanour charge of being an accessory after the fact to the transmission of wagering information. He was sentenced to one year of unsupervised probation and a $500,000 US fine.

The gambling website Bodog has been shut down and four Canadians indicted, including founder Calvin Ayre, for illegal gambling that generated more than $100 million in winnings, U.S. federal prosecutors say.

The website's domain name was seized Monday and the indictments, which were returned Feb. 22, were unveiled Tuesday in Baltimore, prosecutors said.

The indictments follow federal prosecutions last year of three of the biggest websites involved in online poker. More than 75 company bank accounts in 14 countries have been frozen, and authorities are seeking $3 billion in fines and restitution, in that investigation.

In addition to the 50-year-old Ayre, who was born in Lloydminster, Sask., prosecutors say the indictment names website operators James Philip, David Ferguson and Derrick Maloney.

Gamblers in Maryland and elsewhere were sent at least $100 million by wire and cheques from 2005 to 2012, the U.S. Attorney's office said, adding Bodog conducted a $42-million advertising campaign between 2005 and 2008 to attract gamblers to the Bodog.com website.

The operation allegedly moved funds from Bodog's accounts located in Switzerland, England, Malta, Canada and elsewhere to pay winnings to gamblers. The four Canadians each face up to five years in prison for conducting an illegal gambling business and 20 years for money laundering. Bodog.com faces a fine of up to $500,000 for gambling and money laundering. Initial appearances for the individuals have not been scheduled.

Marcia Murphy, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney's office in Baltimore, said the four are not in custody and no attorneys had indicated by Tuesday afternoon they are representing the four or Bodog. Spokeswoman Vickie LeDuc said later Tuesday that arrest warrants had been issued for the four.

Ayre posted a statement on his website Tuesday saying that his company did not take U.S. bets.

'Bodog UK, Bodog Europe and Bodog Asia have never taken bets from the US,' the statement said. 'The BodogBrand is currently consulting with its legal advisers with a view to having the domain returned.'

The statement also said the Bodog domain has not been in use since operations were switched from Bodog.com to Bodog.eu by the Morris Mohawk Gaming Group and The BodogBrand.com revoked its licensing agreement with MMGG on Dec. 15.

In a statement on CalvinAyre.com, Ayre wrote, 'I see this as abuse of the US criminal justice system for the commercial gain of large US corporations. It is clear that the online gaming industry is legal under international law and in the case of these documents it is also clear that the rule of law was not allowed to slow down a rush to try to win the war of public opinion.'

An affidavit filed along with the warrant to seize the site said investigators created accounts with Maryland addresses and received checks in the mail for winnings. The affidavit also said investigators interviewed a former Bodog employee who named top officers and directors and said the company had hundreds of employees in Canada and Costa Rica handling day-to-day operations.

'Sports betting is illegal in Maryland, and federal law prohibits bookmakers from flouting that law simply because they are located outside the country,' said U.S. Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein. 'Many of the harms that underlie gambling prohibitions are exacerbated when the enterprises operate over the internet without regulation.'

Prosecutors say the investigation was led by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Homeland Security Investigations in Baltimore and also involved the Internal Revenue Service, Anne Arundel County Police and Maryland State Police. HIS agents seized the domain name on Monday.

Bodog is an online betting site available to customers in Canada (excluding Quebec). It was created in 2000 by Calvin Ayre, and has expanded into numerous sportsbooks across the international market.

History

1997-2000: Cyberoad

Cyberoad was a betting software company launched in 1997. They assisted in the creation of many early internet sportsbetting sites including Grand Prix Sports, The Big Book, and Mayan Sports. These sportsbooks shared a common payment processor eBanx. Clients were able to deposit through credit card and withdraw via e-check. This was viewed as more convenient than the industry standard at the time of conducting payments through cash agents and money orders. Cyberoad purchased eBanx on November 29, 1999.[1]

2000-2001: El Moro and eSportz

Cyberoad shut down in 2000 after a failed attempt at going public. On July 20, 2000 it's assets were acquired by eSportz, a subsidiary company of El Moro Finances.[2]Grand Prix Sports was purchased by The Big Book whom had already reached an agreement to continue using the betting software now being distributed by eSportz. Mayan Sports could not reach an agreement and were left offline in search of new software. During this time eSportz created their own betting site Bodog, and contacted Mayan customers informing them that their account information had been transferred over.

2001-2003: Kazootek

Bodog and The Big Book operated out of the same offices in Costa Rica. Both sportsbooks employed the accounting firm Kazootek Technologies, who were the current managers of eBanx. On June 15th, 2001 two Kazootek employees Viktoria Zazoulina and Tatiana Kostiouk allegedly began embezzling money from company clients. They recruited a third employee Greg Tanner to assist in the creation of a rival betting software company. The trio had reportedly planned to steal source code from eSportz. The Big Book was rumored to have reached an agreement with them. Viktoria Zazoulina resigned from Kazootek in 2003 following an investigation into the company's finances. Bodog terminated it's partnership with The Big Book and became the sole betting site using eSportz technology.

2004-2007: Bodog

Bodog purchased WorldWide TeleSports for $9 million dollars in October 2006. WorldWide TeleSports was a well known reputable betting site that served the US market. Bodog moved their offices to Antigua and absorbed the existing staff members of WorldWide TeleSports into their company.

In the years to follow Bodog founder Calvin Ayre continued to develop the brand through sponsored events and advertising campaigns. Ayre capitalized on the rise of online poker's popularity following the 2003 WSOP by sponsoring David Williams and Josh Arieh, the 2nd and 3rd place finishers in the following year's tournament. Bodog aired commercials advertising free-to-play poker on their alternative domain bodog.net. This allowed them to avoid United States gambling advertisement restrictions while still promoting the brand name. Players looking for the free-to-play poker on a search engine would find the real version first as the main site ranked higher.

2007-2009: Domain Seizure

On August 28, 2007 Bodog.com went offline. Customers were sent an e-mail informing them that the site would return as soon as possible. 1st Technology, LLC had seized the domain for violation of a patent on the transmission of information over a network with reduced bandwidth. The company had first contacted Bodog offices in July 2005. A lawsuit was filed in September 2006 after not receiving a reply. Bodog representatives failed to appear in court, leading to the judge ordering a default judgement in March 2007. Bodog was required to pay 1st Technology, LLC $48,937,456 for patent infringement.

Bodog began sponsorship of English Premier League squad West Bromwich Albion on June 27th, 2011.[3]

Following the court loss Bodog announced that Morris Mohawk Gaming Group were now operating the brand's business in the US market. The court decision was appealed on the grounds that the domain Bodog.com was no longer owned by Bodog or Calvin Ayre. The appeal reached Washington courts but ultimately failed. The betting site was forced to switch to a new domain BodogLife.com. The loss of site traffic built on years of prior advertising campaigns lead to financial difficulties. On April 23, 2009 Morris Mohawk Gaming Group regained control of Bodog.com after settling the lawsuit with 1st Technology, LLC.

2009 - Present: International Expansion

Site traffic increased following the return of Bodog.com allowing the company to expand into international markets. Bodog launched new sportsbooks in Asia, Canada, and the United Kingdom. The brand continued to grow overseas through the sponsorship of English Premier League teams West Brom and Arsenal.
