The amount €630,000 and a quite lengthy jail term is something surely no professional poker pro ever wants to pay for, so next time if you're good enough to win such a hefty amount at any poker event, then the humongous tax you're about to pay is something you should be happy to part with, or else...suffer the dire consequences.

This is just a quick shout-out to all of you who participated in our free Mob Betting World Cup game - thank you! We hope you liked it.

Also a big congratulations to all the winners. As you know, we had four weekly leaderboards with 15 winners each and an overall leaderboard also with 15 winners, so up to 75 winners (some might have won more than once, of course) shared the $1765 prize pool in Mob Points, Mob Draw tickets and Mob Safe bonus shots.

We haven't yet decided what to do with the Mob Betting game now that the World Cup is over. Maybe we'll open it up for other events such as EPT/WPT/WSOP tournaments or sporting events, maybe include a running leaderboard, a monthly leaderboard etc. We'll let you know what we decide on but if you have any ideas or comments, you know where to put them (in the comment field, just below...)

Again, thank you all for participating and also a congratulation to Spain for winning the World Cup 2010.

Congratulations to top 15 finishers in the weekly leaderboard #3, you have just been paid the prizes you won!

Today we are entering week #4, the final week of World Cup betting. Only four matches left, so now is the time to start betting (it's free) if you want a chance to either finish top 15 on the Overall Leaderboard or get a top 15 place on this weekly leaderboard, where everybody is back to 0 points to begin with.

The two semifinals are Uruguay vs Netherlands tomorrow evening and Germany vs Spain on Wednesday evening. On Saturday the two semifinal-losers will play for 3rd place, maybe it will be a match between Uruguay and Spain, which means we will see Netherlands vs Germany in the World Cup final on Sunday.

Go to your Mob Account now and find the "Mob Betting" section at the bottom - place your free bets on the two semifinals matches and be sure to come back on Thursday to bet on the final two matches of the World Cup.

Good luck!
