Land based casinos in the US will be looking at ENORMOUS profits. Think about it. First the online casinos and poker rooms train millions of fresh new YOUNG gamblers and get them hooked on poker. Many of these young people spends hours everyday playing poker, they eat sleep and dream the game. :madat:
There is a lot of truth in your statement but can the supply meet the demand? The face of gambling has changed immensely in the last 10 years. The appetite is so huge now because of the internet and the big Vegas casinos started to realize this about 5 years ago and have been prepping themselves for the internet.
How about the thousands who can’t reach, for one reason or another, a land based casino?
Then there are the millions who are addicted to the free games and have no interest in placing a bet. They are just going to accept that right taken away from them? This legislation will effect them at some level.
