Poker Indictments - Winners and Losers
April 28, 2011
The indictment of the three biggest online poker operators has already created winners and losers. Media companies like ESPN, were hurt. But there is growing interest in legal alternatives, like PurePlay.com and Atlantis Internet Group (ATIG). Poker sites that don't take bets from the U.S., like Playtech and Bwin.party have seen a surge of players. But landbased operators have seen increases too small to be important for MGM, Las Vegas Sands Corp., Wynn Resorts and Penn National Gaming.

Amnesty for Internet Gambling Companies?
March 28, 2011
Good news for Internet gambling operators: Nevada approved Caesars Entertainment-888 partnership. So others, like Party Gaming - Bwin, can come back. But Wynn Resorts announced it will work with PokerStars. Sites taking US bets have better name recognition. MGM, Las Vegas Sands Corp., Lakes Entertainment and Penn National Gaming are preoccupied. But Peninsula Gaming, Foxwoods - Goodson Gaming, Cake Poker - Atlantis , and Scientific Games - Playtech (Sciplay) are getting ready to jump in.

Nevada Board Approves Caesars-888 Deal
March 16, 2011
The Nevada Gaming Control Board has approved a partnership between Caesars Entertainment and 888 Holdings. This does not mean that true Internet gambling is coming to Nevada, at least not yet. But the approval means casino regulators have accepted an operator that used to take bets from the U.S. It also points to which states and companies will win the race to be America’s first licensed online poker operators: Caesars or PartyGaming - bwin Interactive Entertainment.

Gov. Christie Vetoes N.J. Internet Gambling
March 14, 2011
Governor Chris Christie gave legitimate reasons for vetoing the intrastate Internet gaming bill. But the real reason was political. As a Republican, Christie has to both balance the budget and be socially conservative. So he will help put it on the ballot. If NJ voters approve, it's not his fault. And the real winners will be the licensed casinos of Atlantic City, which desperately need ways to compete and expand their business.

UIGEA Regs will take effect June 1st
March 30, 2010
Banks and other payment processors were originally given until December 1, 2009, to implement regulations under the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act. Congressional leaders asked for a one year delay; they got six months. Reid and Geithner have given into political extortion from Sen. Jon Kyl, pledging no further delays. The good news is that this is only going to cost banks a lot of money. The regulations don’t actually do anything, except make work for gaming lawyers.
