Germans Love Online Casinos Poker

Germany is one of the ten European member-states illegally operating land and online casinos gambling monopolies in the state which openly defy EU trade policies. But it seems that despite the legislation that blocks foreign internet gambling companies from operating in the German market, Germans are finding a way to play poker at the online casinos. A new report from Deutsche Welle indicates that Germany has a booming land and internet poker following despite heavy regulations in the land gambling industry and unenforced restrictions within the internet gambling industry.

At this point, Germany is in a state of flux on the online casinos gambling issue. The country is under investigation by the European Commission for running a state gambling monopoly, but despite the investigation the German government continues to pass support legislation that will further protect the state’s land and online casinos gambling monopolies. But despite new legislation and moves to further regulate and protect the state’s internet gambling industry from foreign operators, nearly half of the internet poker gambling done in the state goes through foreign operators licensed in one of the many remote licensing jurisdictions.

There is some concern by not only the online casinos gambling companies looking to enter the German gambling market legally, but by those who fear that the current state of legislation leaves internet gamblers and poker players vulnerable. According to he Welle report, German online gamblers spend more than Euro 1 million and more than 200,000 gamblers participated in some from of internet gambling be it at the internet casinos or poker sites.

There is definitely room in Germany for more decisive and inclusive online casino gambling legislation.
