Possibilities in South Carolina

The south of the United States seems to be rebelling just a bit against the restrictive US laws that have banned offshore online casinos from accessing US players and offering them any form of internet gambling or internet poker. The landscape of gambling in the United States is changing, however, and the individual state legislatures are certainly lured by the revenue potential of legalized and licensed internet poker gambling. There has been a lot of speculation in the international gambling industry about the federal government’s stance on state internet poker gambling. US lawyers are finding the situation similarly frustrating but all sources seem to indicate that there is a strong possibility that both South Carolina and Florida are on the verge of passing new legislation.

New gambling legislation in the south is a pretty big deal because of the culture that emanates throughout the south – a culture of tradition and moderation. The South Carolina legislature has the opportunity to take the overturning of the antiquated gambling legislation one step even further in the current direction. South Carolina has had the same tired land and online casino gambling policy in place for nearly 200 years and only during this current Congressional session did the state legislatures vote to change the long-standing gambling legislation.

The online casino poker gambling industry sees a lot of potential in the current situation and the PPA has been firm in its efforts to bring a new bill to vote before the current Congressional session ends. The bill in question would legalize internet poker gambling within the state borders and provide additional funding for the state budget because of the ability to tax the internet poker industry. There are only five days left in the current Congressional session in South Carolina and the PPA has high hopes that the bill will pass through before the summer.
