    Default A Sick Week in Online Gambling!

    The Barton bill has raised the hopes of poker players, but not everyone is so enthusiastic about the proposed legislation. Also, more Black Friday fallout from across the Atlantic. Plus, regulated online gambling has been put on hold in Washington, D.C.

    Fighting for trust, honesty and integrity in the online gambling industry!

    The UK DCMS started looking at tightening up gambling controls over a year ago. In fact, you covered it...

    ...and I wrote about it:

    If you're interested, my article includes links to all the documents with the proposed changes.


    I don't think this is related to Full Tilt et al, other than that it may have hurried them along.

    EDIT: The media have indeed put an inaccurate spin on this:

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2011/ju...ull-tilt-poker

    "British licences to be tightened after Full Tilt is caught up in US money laundering inquiry"

    They then go on to correctly quote the Culture Minister:

    "This highlights why the government is looking at reforming how overseas-based operators are regulated".

    Highlights, yes; but it wasn't the driving force.

    Thanks, Guy...


    I have done so many of these things that it's hard for me to remember them all! LOL! I think they put the Full Tilt "inaccurate spin" on this story for the same reason any government does what it does: It serves their purpose at the time.
