World Gambling News » Mr. Andersons Insight http://www.worldgamblingnews.com Bringing you the very latest news in the gambling world Sun, 10 Jul 2011 14:44:10 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.1 en Online Gambling for US players looking thin http://www.worldgamblingnews.com/2011/07/online-gambling-for-us-players-looking-thin/ http://www.worldgamblingnews.com/2011/07/online-gambling-for-us-players-looking-thin/#comments Sun, 10 Jul 2011 14:44:10 +0000 Ctrenks http://www.worldgamblingnews.com/2011/07/online-gambling-for-us-players-looking-thin/ With all the crazy things happening in the world I’m amazed we see the US government going after online casinos and online poker rooms the way they are today.  With the hit on Full Tilt along with other poker rooms, Quicktender followed right behind in getting large amount of cash seized.  Most cash taken from Quicktender was not even gambling related but the DOJ doesn’t care for some reason?

Why are we not seeing a big push on the US Mexico boarder where lives are being taken, drugs are being smuggled in and all sorts of crazy crimes take place?  How about the Gun running scheme Fast and Furious out DOJ ran placing countless amounts of small arms into the Mexican drug lords hands?  These guns have now been traced to the deaths of many civilians as well as boarder patrol officers.  The government needs to  look at the priorities and all the stupid laws on the books and start over.

So, as much as I want a casino or two in Ohio, I will be voting NO on issue 6 as I firmly believe a casino will be great for the state, but it must be done correctly or its just a giant vacuum for Ohio’s cash.

 Others handed over form Go Daddy registrar are Cake Poker, and Ultimate Bet Poker along with of course Doyle’s Room.

 If anyone has a domain registered with Go Daddy I suggest moving it ASAP.

 The domain www.goldencasino.com is the latest domain turned over to these idiots, although it still works you can see the whois is going to the commonwealth of Kentucky.  I am simply amazed.

Steve Beshear of Kentucky will get his answer from the judge as he attempts to obtain the ownership of 141 more Online Gambling domain names to The Commonwealth of Kentucky to “protect the people of Kentucky” .  Well he also stated that he really wants to protect the Horse racing industry of Kentucky as well as the land based casinos and lottery mainly but he is also concerned about the people I guess? 

The historic presence of this case is huge, if he succeeds where does it go next?  If he is permitted to get the 141 names (he already has obtained 2 that were no longer in use but on his list) where does it end?  The domain names in question are form licensed operators in different countries, with domain registration legally obtained outside of the United States.  This sounds so amazingly impossible that I feel stupid writing this article but this is happening, happening TODAY, NOW..  well you get the idea.

If this case is not thrown out of court and laughed at by the presiding justice what is next?  Will all adult sites be taken over by a state or church that claims the content is not suitable for people or children in their district?  What about the businesses destroyed by taking away the number one identifier?  Are all news sites next if they report a story that makes the public obtain an opinion that others do not want?

 Its bad enough we are loosing ground to China in many aspects, but we do not need to become China.  This is an attempt at censorship, plain and simple but I bet the complacent public of the United States will just utter the old “well that’s too bad but I am not effected” quote we are all accustomed to at this point.

Steve Beshear in a means to protect the horse racing and lottery monopoly, along with the commonwealth of Kentucky has taken over the ownership of an online gambling web site stating they are breaking the laws of 50 states by offering online gambling.  Not only is Online Gambling not breaking any state laws unless your in the repressed state of Washington, seizing domain names to sensor the Internet is pure Communism.  I hope this causes such a backlash in Kentucky this jackass never sees another day of legislation and turns into a jobless lowlife he is.

Now you say you never heard of the site in question, LuckyPyramidCasino.com but that was one of 150 domain names they want to seize including bodoglife, allslots and others all having a major stake in online gambling world wide.  If the US is permitted to take control of these domains and sensor the American people on how they are to live their lives then I say its past due for a revolution our founding fathers would be proud of.

Here is a list image of the domains to be attacked. (more…)

Getting back to the point, with barney frank presiding over this bill, how hard would it be to slip in an end to the UIGEA as its another must pass bill.  You know my stance on ”slipping” something onto a bill but this would be a double negative making a real positive no?  With Frank’s attempts at passing a bill to eradicate the UIGEA as its a complete joke and Bordon on the banking industry, it seems almost for sure he will add text to regulate gaming online or at least wipe out this stupid addition to the port security act.

 All we can do is hope something decent comes of this fiasco, maybe a moment of silence or a few thousand emails to Frank to let him know this is a good idea!
