Lady Holdem,
Like stated earlier, the charge in Louisiana is “gambling by computer” to my knowledge so far this has no distinction into if it is sports betting or casino, poker, etc…
Comment from David Jenning below:
“The fact that Louisiana state law does not make a distinction between the type of gaming activities being provided means that this latest move is likely to have implications for William Hill, 888.com and PartyGaming in particular,” said analyst David Jennings at Davy stockbrokers.
I have heard the same comment from others as well. If I ran a casino, or poker site I would probably be overly causious as well when it comes to taking bets from the US. Is the risk of jail time really worth another buck to the earnings per share of a company?
