I have long been against complete legalization, for that same reason.
Gooner – the UK bookies and the US bookies are two different worlds. Just to see an example of legal online gambling – visit YouBet.com (legal online horse racing betting website in the US) and look for “affiliate” 
the best you will get is $50 if you refer a friend. The same goes with TwinSpires, etc. If they loved volume why don’t the currently legal websites offer affiliate programs?!?
Also, Will Hill pays affiliates peanuts, BlueSquare’s affiliate system sucks, Ladbrokes could give 2 :bullshit: about their affiliates and I could go on and on. InterCasino and PartyPoker are 100% online and they are not a good example.
And as far as casinos, I don’t think there will be any “online casino junketeers” and even if there are, trust me, 30% of NGR will look like a distant dream 5%-7% is my prediction.
