Legal Scandal Online Casino Firm Comments on UK Approach

Published on December 12, 2006 by admin   ·   No Comments

One of the most famous online casino sports book operators and the one in the center of possibility the biggest online gambling related legal scandal, is now firing it’s arrows towards the United Kingdom’s government. The online sports book was accused by the U.S. authorities of offering online casino gambling to American citizens in a time prior to the enactment of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act. The online casino site’s new CEO did not waste anytime and attacked the way the UK government approached the situation, saying “We are disappointed with the lack of support the industry has received from the UK government prior to the enactment of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act.”

The online casino firm was severely influenced by the introduction of online gambling legislation in the United States. The company had to sell all of its sports book operations in America and close its online poker website. With the UK government promoting online casino regulation, the gambling firm expected some support in the legal battle against U.S. authorities. The legal scandal continued for many months and had grave implications for the entire online casino and sports book industry. It portrayed the online gambling industry as an illegal body, and gave negative publicity to the firm.

The new CEO commented on the issue in relation to the publication of the online casino firm’s quarterly results. Business has changed greatly for the online sports book operator, and the results are clear on that. The firm believes that the UK Secretary of State’s comments regarding the new situation in the United States were of no use, and came too late in the process. Although this online casino sports book operator seems to tell a lonely story, it reflects the current state of affairs in the United States, when operators are facing grave legal implications. Online casino sports betting is still available, and the company continues to offer great gambling attractions for the global market, it’s just that the American market is becoming off-limits to many.
