Online Gambling legalized in Italy

Italy, where casinos, “little houses”, first appeared, has kept a close relationship with the gambling world. Indeed the two go together hand in hand and always will. It is not such a big surprise then that the country has started the formalities to move forward the regulations of the online gambling industry. It is now official, as from January 1st 2007 Italians will be able to gamble online legally. The law will also be dealing with public sports betting places. It has been greatly influenced it seems by the way UK fixed the problem. When doing business with Italian customers, the government will take 3% tax of the company’s revenues. This is not such a bad deal and it seems that it’s pretty much the way things are going around the world, seeing that in England, the system so far is very satisfactory.

So what about the US? The senate has failed in trying to pass the Internet Gambling Prohibition Act and sessions of congress are not very enthusiastic as far as complex issues like this one are concerned.

This is excellent news for the online gambling business; doylespokerroom.com, already a highly reputable and successful online poker site, is very excited about the outcome of things. Doylespokerroom.com is endorsed by Doyle Brunson and enjoys a fast growing popularity; it is the site where gamblers can share a game or two with the legendary poker star. It has a complete array of poker games and tournaments, including games like Badugi, which are hard to find. Doylespokerroom.com offers over $ 4,000.000 in prizes monthly.
