Online Casino Gambling --- Casino News

Surprisingly High Figures

A cursory look at the online casino gambling industry would seem to indicates that the bulk of internet gambling takes place in Europe and the UK – these markets produce huge amounts of revenue for the international gambling industry and boast some of the most modern gambling legislation available. But the latest figures indicate some surprising results on per capita consumers of gambling at the online casinos and internet gambling sites. The University of Lethbridge in Alberta, Canada released some new facts and figures that indicate that both Australia and New Zealand are the highest per capita consumers of internet gambling.

Australia has been in the news a lot lately for its controversial approaches toward internet censorship and New Zealand is rarely in the news although there is certainly a viable online casino gambling market in the country. This latest report of figures is now just one more piece of information that the opponents of online caisno gambling can throw at the issue. The fact of the matter is, yes, internet gamblers spend more than land gamblers. That has already been established. But, importantly, if the internet casinos make strong efforts to prevent problem and abusive gambling then there shouldn’t be massive issues. One common complaint from the opponents is the fact that internet gamblers can use credit cards to fuel their gambling habits whereas this is a more difficult habit to have in the land gambling industry.

All of this latest research is coming at a tough time for the online casinos and gambling companies – they are actually doing well in the Australian market. With all of this talk about high rates of spending at the internet-based sites the anti-gambling lobbyists are just getting more fueling the fodder that is rampant about the internet gambling industry.
