They do take bets from:

Afganishtan
Azerbaijan
Bhutan
Botswana
Bouvet Island
Burkina Faso
Congo
Djibouti
Eritrea
Heard and McDonald Islands
Kiribati
Lesotho
Mozambique
Namibia
Niue
Svalbard And Jan Mayen Islands
Tajikistan
Tuvalu
Zambia

And Even take bets from the Holy See (Vatican City State)... but not from Chavez' country!

Maybe a case of political discrimination here?

Not a single mention when looking for "Venezuela" as keyword at the official Gambling Comission from UK ( link:://gamblingcommission.gov.uk (link:://gamblingcommission.gov.uk) )

Internal search:
link:://search2.gamblingcommission.gov.uk/Search/SearchResults.aspx?k=venezuela (link:://search2.gamblingcommission.gov.uk/Search/SearchResults.aspx?k=venezuela)

Google search:
link:://:.google.com/search?hl=en&q=venezuela+site:gamblingcommission.gov.uk (link:://:.google.com/search?hl=en&q=venezuela+site:gamblingcommission.gov.uk)

One would think that "as per the gambling legislation set in the UK" at least a single mention would be at the official government .gov.uk's gambling commission site, perhaps only one: in the blacklist!

Dear Victor,
                    i regulary play at skyvegas and a fan of this site but did not know this fact that Venezuela is excluded. I can not understand the reason for this but this is not in good taste.
