More Info on Poker Problems
Attending the EiG Expo in Barcelona a few weeks past was pretty exciting for a
handful of the delegates who found themselves raided by the Spanish police in
the middle of their illegal land poker tournament. The poker tournament started
at the online casino poker gambling sites and the land poker tourney was the
culmination of those still left for the final table event. The news of the bust
hit the internet gambling industry the week after the bust and initial reports
indicated that while no one was arrested in the case, the Spanish police
confiscated all of the illegal poker equipment being used for the tourney.
The online casino poker gambling industry has been on fire in terms of growth in
the past several months and although the economy is slowing, gamblers in Europe
keep heading to the poker rooms to try and win big. The EiG conference and Expo
annual event in Barcelona was a hit this year and welcomed delegates from all
over the globe. The top brass at the online casinos and poker gambling sites
made the trek to Barcelona for a weekend of exhibitions, new product launches,
and a wealth of discussions of issue pertinent to the internet poker gambling
industry.
CAP announced the latest information on the poker bust and apparently the entire
situation was a matter of miscommunication of new laws. Those involved with the
land and online casino poker tourney emphasized that the poker was not intended
to fly under the radar in any way and that the issue resulted from the fact that
Catalan laws changed within the past year and the tournament organizers were
unaware of the change. |
