doug is right about the uk.the betters, no excuse me the investors treat gambling like an investment .they have ladbrocks,william hill and betfair to name a few.our government will never treat gambling here like the people in the uk are treated.people in the usa treat it like a cancer.my sisters frind is from the uk and she lives with my sister in the small town of north carolina,she said it took about a month to get adjusted to our time zone.i love the uk but it could because iam liberal.
