Default 60 Minutes Internet Gambling Feature

60 Minutes is doing a feature about internet gambling tonight. The feature will be looking at the size and impact of the online gambling market, especially here in the USA where the legality of the activity is in question. The show will feature interviews with Senator John Kyl, CEO of Sportingbet Nigel Payne, CEO of the World Poker Tour Steve Lipscomb, and CEO of the MGM Mirage Terry Lanni.

Worth checking out.

Default saw it

I saw the segment and thought it was ok. Didnt really say much that most people were already aware of. It is interesting though the liscensing aspect of the whole thing. How if online poker actually gets "liscensed" and regulated and taxed, how even bigger the online industry can become!

Yeah, there's no doubt about that. There are still a lot of people who either don't know how to fund an online poker account, or that are too nervous to go through the process since they're dealing with foreign companies not regulated by the US government. (As if the US government regulation is any better than other countries'. In come cases it is, but in other cases it might not be.)

I missed that one, I realize it was last year, but recently I caught something about it and I missed most of it, I was wondering if anyone saw something similar recenlty and if so could they point me in the direction, I think it was a cable channel
