What's that got to do with anything?
There are enough people around who can anticipate the effect this will have and are frontrunning.

I was already all in fiat anyway, but the first thing I did upon seeing the news was pulling my bid (it would have been filled by now otherwise).

I am convinced that the BTCs sold by satoshi dice shareholders will crash the market pretty severely. And so are alot of other people. It becomes a self fulfilling prophesy at that point...
