Play-for-fun format will prepare for proposed law changes legalizing Internet gambling

From the CAP Newswire:

October 3, 2008 (InfoPowa News) -- Hopeful that upcoming legislation will legalize online gambling in the country, the Czech Republic’s biggest lottery operator, Sazka, has announced plans to launch a new play-for-fun online casino.

The Czech government has been considering the legalization and regulation of online gambling for some time, and new legislation in the Eastern European nation could come up for a vote in Parliament before the end of 2008, according to reliable sources. Sazka has accordingly been gearing up its new free online offering in order to stand ready to switch to real money action once the laws come into effect, giving it an edge on foreign competitors.

E-Sazka.cz was launched as the carrying website earlier this year, allowing Internet gamblers to arrange bets online before placing their wagers at a physical retail point of sale using a bet identifier or barcode. The new online casino addition will initially offer roulette, blackjack, Texas hold'em, and other poker games on a free-play basis.
