State-by-State Gambling Law Plans Continue to Threaten Affiliate Marketing

Again, this “Las Vegas” syndrome could have a devastating effect on gambling affiliates and off-shore brands. IMO, assuming that this comes to fruition, 3 things will determine gambling affiliates’ fate in this regard:

1) Are these state-run gambling sites as good and as reliable as off-shore brands ?

2) Will the notion of paying taxes on winnings sit well with gamblers, or will it turn them off, thus
continuing the use of off-shore brands ?

3) Will we see more Kentucky-like actions, where various off-shore brands and domains are blocked
by local ISP’s ? If so, expect this sort of action to be challenged, and eventually wind up in the
Supreme Court.
