New Online Casino Domain
The Italian internet gambling industry is in for a thrill as the New Year kicks
off. Ladbrokes is a very active online casino gambling group in the Italian
market and the gambling group announced plans to start a new Texas Hold’em
gambling site aimed at the Italian market in particular. Italy is one of the EU
countries that has only slowly begun to conform to the European Commission’s
demands for an inclusive internet gambling industry. It’s taking quite some
time, but internet betting is widely accepted across Italy, and online casino
poker will launch in full force at the beginning of the year.
Ladbrokes is one of a handful of online casino gambling groups that has been
licensed to operate in the Italian market. Ladbrokes’ gaming site, Ladbrokes.it,
specifically operates as solely a sportsbetting site in the market. That is
changing though and poker gambling fans will have full access to Texas Hold’em
poker games through the site come January. This will be one of the first
regulated poker sites to begin operation in the Italian market because the
Italian gambling authorities are only very cautiously licensing sites – and is
still specifically not licensing online casinos.
With more and more gambling groups obtaining gambling licenses for internet
gambling related sectors that are not online casinos, gambling experts predict
that the Italian market will be one of the largest booming sectors of the
European market in 2010. There is a huge potential for growth in this market and
there is huge expectation that internet poker is going to be a hit in the
market. Then, in time, other sectors of the market will likely find licensing
and acceptance as the European Commission pushes for a wholly inclusive EU
market. |
