+ | Despite overseas-based operations, the lion's share of the revenues and clients of these sites come from American states. Actually, recent studies show that these online casino gambling and sports betting sites earn more than legal casinos operating in Nevada. The profits of online gambling and betting sites are estimated at $70 billion for 2005 alone. This really is a staggering amount when compared with the reported $2 billion from Nevada casinos. This is sufficient to overthrow the three-decade reign of Nevada casinos from the 60's to the early 90's. Considering that sports book and casino sites are already operating for less than two decades, they may be clearly a threat to the thriving Nevada gambling scene. | ||

+ | For decades, Las Vegas will be the only place legal for gambling operations. Atlantic City followed suit and made casino gambling legal; the next decades saw the proliferation of state lotteries, card clubs, gaming ships, Indian casinos, and off-track betting salons across the nation. But but, these developments are inadequate to compete with online gambling. The sector of online gambling isn't even swayed by staunch opposition from legal US casinos. The gambling laws of the states of America don't help, too. They vary widely from the different states. Most states ban all forms of gambling while some make exceptions. Inconsistencies like these make it easy for online operators to search out and use loopholes within the law. The American Gaming Association maintains a defensive stand regarding online gambling. The association pushes for federal laws on the regulation of online gambling. According to them, the unregulated nature of the internet gambling industry will be its advantage over traditional casinos; regulating it puts both camps on even footing. | ||

+ | But regardless of this stand, some Nevada casinos are following the old stand-by: if you're not able to beat them, join them. November 1998 saw the start of a brand new trend; traditional casinos started acquiring off-shore online casino gambling companies to improve their profits. An affiliate of the Hilton Hotels absorbed the Australian sports book Centrebet.com. Other Nevada casinos followed and this cycle again spawned a new barrage of debates. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Contrary to their earlier dislike of the on-line gambling industry, the traditional casinos set their sights higher. They may be now pressuring the Congress to pass a law that legalizes online gambling. This is done within an effort to lower production costs; legalization implies that they could now shift their operations within the US. Harrah' | ||

+ | Whatever comes out of this new development in casino gambling, gamers are still assured of their gambling fix. Possibly, should the proposed regulation is approved, there could be more security in betting online since it is now under US laws. Like before, casino gambling proves itself to be a dynamic and ever-changing industry. |
