Catania is Leading the Investigation

Online casino gamblers are not yet ready to concede their argument over the two cheating scandals that occurred at affiliated gambling sites. A year ago the news broke about the Absolute Poker cheating scandal – and just as the investigation was finding resolution last winter, the news broke that Absolute’s sister site, Ultimate Bet, was also involved in a very serious cheating scandal that affected many of the site’s online casino poker players. The Kahnawake Gaming Commission licenses both of these online gambling sites and has investigated and resolved both cases – the only problem is they are tight-lipped about the outcome of the Ultimate Bet scandal and internet gamblers are demanding more information – that is where Frank Catania comes into play.

The Kahnawake Gaming Commission announced just this week that Frank Catania will lead an independent investigation into the cheating scandals to ensure that all procedures were accurately handled and that the online casinos in question are no longer a threat to internet poker players. This is exactly the type of investigation that is needed to assuage concerns over the multi-million dollar cheating scandals that occurred at the two online casinos – but some in the industry are questioning the Commission’s decision to appoint Catania to lead the investigation.

Catania is the former Gaming Regulator for the State of New Jersey and has extensive experience working within the land gambling industry. Additionally, though, and this is what is raising concerns with online casino gamblers, Catania was instrumental in developing the Kahnawake Gaming Commission’s regulations and procedures when the Commission was first launched and began to license sites. Many internet gamblers question his objectivity and instead are asserting that a true outsider with no affiliations to the Commission should head up the team.
