Good news for online gambling firms According to Reuters:
"There will be No US Senate action soon on the H.R. 4411
Online gambling bill.
- A bill to ban Internet gambling is facing some opposition in
the U.S. Senate and will not come up for a vote before the chamber
takes its August recess, an aide to the U.S. Senate majority leader
said on Thursday.
Backers of the online gambling legislation had hoped to push
it through the Senate quickly this month following the arrest
in the United States of David Carruthers, the chief executive
of a sports betting company, on charges of racketeering and conspiracy."
The proposed Goodlatte's bill for anti-online gaming (bill H.R.
4411), also conveniently leaves out horse racing, and lotteries-so
it would be okay to gamble online on horse racing but online
poker will get banned - what an insane bill!
The US Senate "luckily" has better things to do than
try to block grown-up people from going online to make a wager
on the Super Bowl or play
online poker after hard days work"
