Euphemism: "Liquidity Problems". I hate business-speak, it's sterile, elliptical and imprecise not to mention just plain ugly. Trolling the internet after black friday I even found myself using this awful phrase in order to get people to respond to my emails and try to make myself sound professional or something. "Liquidity" means having cash. "Liquidity problems" means having no cash but implies that the business having said problems likely has other assets it is trying to convert to cash in the near future to solve its liquidity problem. The poker sites don't have assets worth shit- a couple servers tucked up on an indian reserve in Canada, some advertising and operating dollars and a few support staff scattered across the globe and a moderately valueable piece of software. So when my beloved sites have "liquidity problems" really what they are is busto.

Nerdy philosopher joke: To which I have to thank W. V. Quine, an academic of the old school who writes (to borrow a great phrase from David Foster Wallace) with almost Himalyan condescension in attacking the ontology of one of his colleagues which admits possible and impossible things: "This tangled doctrine might be nicknamed Plato's beard; historically it has proved tough, frequently dulling the edge of Occam's razor." Burn!
