China Busting Gambling Rings

The Chinese government was certainly not kidding earlier in the year when they announced plans to fully begin nationwide efforts to prevent, block, and stop online casino gambling and betting in the country. China is one of the most concerned nations in the world about the internet gambling situation and has created incredibly controversial situations over the past more than a year with attempts to censor and block internet gambling through filters as well as excessively harsh punishments from the government for Chinese citizens found circumventing the blocks and offering illegal online casinos and betting opportunities in the country. The latest news out of China is centered on the massive gambling ring bust that has but a huge damper on the internet betting scene.

Chinese police and government officials were pleased to announced that the gambling ring bust marks an important step for the country in eliminating illegal online casino betting. The raided gambling ring was located out of the Jiangsu Province in China and officials conservatively estimate that it serviced more than 22,000 online bettors from all over China. And in a bold move that will alter the entire face of the Chinese internet casino betting industry, the police have turned over the identity of all 22,000 Chinese citizens who were using the betting ring to place illegal bets.

Follow up action is planned by the Ministry of Public Security and yet the extent to this follow up action is unknown. Up until now Chinese officials have really focused the thrust of their anti-online casino betting action on the gambling rings themselves – owners, organizers and those running the ring; going after the actual Chinese citizens will be a marked change for the Chinese officials and a potent next step in the crack-down efforts.
