    The weather has been very weird all over the world lately. It's crazy, I know what you mean. We've only just started Autumn here in Australia and it sure doesn't feel like that. A "cooling down" period instead of the "bad actors" clause, lol. Paying a 29% tax on gross revenue is quite steep. I bet they'll pay a higher tax percentage in the future. You made me laugh when you spoke in Swedish. Another nice video J. Todd

    We pissed ourselves from the 'go' when this vid started when we saw your weather

    Next week - hail, thunder, and JT gets struck in the head by a lightning bolt.

    The show must go on!

    The "bad actor" thing is so weird. You're inviting people over to have a legal business in the country, and what do you do to help the good folks in? You ask them to stop doing anything until further notice. The big casinos can do this, but the small ones have either break the law or go out of business.

    Wouldn't it be smarter to make a "warming up" period? But what do you expect from the folks who say fines don't work and then increase them.

    They need a cooling down period because they didn’t expect such fast growth of online gambling seeking for potential profit from the gambling sites. It requires regulations but reasonable ones. In my opinion, currently, only a few countries including Australia welcome gambling . Playing casino games can be addicting, but it doesn’t mean that a gambler can’t be responsible. This is the same as to call Internet bad because people can do bad things via the Internet.

    I have found a grat article that explains quite good all the currenct canges https://www.casinoplayersreport.com/...line-gambling/
