The Damage Assessed: 2

The background of the story is just the perfect grounds for an expose really – there are so many interesting and questionable details about the whole situation that it was a prime opportunity for the online casino gambling industry to undergo some scrutiny. The US investigative news program Sixty Minutes, in conjunction with the Washington Post investigated the two cheating scandals over the past two months and the results of the investigation were assembled into an in depth expose that online casino and internet poker gambling sites were anxiously awaiting airing in anticipation that the program would really disparage the industry and Tokwiro’s two poker gambling sites.

The program aired last Sunday and really the news program went easy on the online caisno and poker gambling sites. The opening of the program was a bit ominous and set a tone that really wasn’t followed after that point. There were no dire statements and most of the information presented was factual and merely a re-presentation of many of the facts associated with the scandals. The only place where the online poker gamblers and the community at large is scoffing concerns the way in which the program portrayed the US online casino gambling industry – it painted a picture of a highly illegal US market where internet poker gambling is rampant despite US restrictions.

But even the analysis of the US online casino and poker gambling markets was a bit spot-on – internet gambling is illegal in the US for the gambling companies themselves but not for gamblers, and the expose highlighted the fact that the current US legislation regarding the internet casinos is unworkable and unenforceable at this point.
