I didn't realize this... but in britain they were smart enough to legalize gambling, on pretty much anything...

heres the full story, now if only the US could figure it out..

But Al... technically there is no clear legislature saying internet gambling is "illegal" in The U.S. That is why legislators are trying to pass laws to "make it illegal". So in a grey area type of thought process, it is "legal".

P.D. - And who is the government to tell people they can't gamble when Bodog advertises on ESPN, Odds are displayed on National TV for the Kentucky Derby, and Deal or No Deal is aired on National TV.

And they are so casual about it, there is no "sin" in gambling as you face it in the US, you dont have to deal with puritanism or the morality of it

its just as normal as it is to buy tickets for the lotto

Sure you can. You just have to spend it at the local race track, indian casino, state lottery, or a trip to Las Vegas.

If you can't see the confict of interest I have a bridge to sell you.
