Despite the overall attitude against online gambling by the Department of Justice, online casinos have not been targeted. That having been said, the industry is still thriving – particularly the RTG software. More RTG casinos are regularly being added, and we can tell you that new, best USA casinos using this software are always springing up. More importantly, those that already exist are thriving.
Despite how well the casinos are doing, there is one thing that has scared many players. A new bill to regulate poker has emerged, and it has brought in a clause that may make online casinos illegal. Right now, the games are not illegal. They have not been made illegal, so you will be able to participate in the games without having the risk of being jailed, prosecuted or otherwise harmed.
We are not expecting the downfall of the online poker industry to spell doom for the online casino industry, but we feel that it would be completely ironic if such great casinos as Casino Titan or Slots Jungle are made actually illegal by the laws of the land. The bill is H.R. 2366, for 2011, not the earlier sessions, and it is currently making its way through Congress.
No matter what happens, one thing is for certain – the online poker industry may become legal, free to operate, and totally safe. We are actually hoping this bill passes, but we are already e-mailing our senators to make sure that online casinos are not made illegal.
