Online Casino News APCW Online Gaming News Feed Online gaming news from the Association of Players, Casinos & Webmasters. August 8th, 2008 - Three Men Plead Guilty in BOS Online Gambling Case by Covers 8 Aug 2008 at 11:20am Covers - Three men who helped promote the online gambling firm BetOnSports have pleaded guilty to federal charges. William Hernan Lenis, his son, Will Lenis, and nephew Manny Lenis entered the pleas Wednesday in St. Louis. Attorneys for the Miami men said they were minor players caught up in a high-profile investigation. The U.S. attorney's office in St. Louis in 2006 accused BetOnSports, its executives and others of illegally accepting bets online. Later that year, the government settled civil charges against BetOnSports and permanently barred the company from accepting any bets from U.S. gamblers. The company itself pleaded guilty last year. The case has been watched closely by the multibillion-dollar online gambling industry. Officials with the U.S. attorney's office in St. Louis declined to comment on Wednesday's pleas, citing pending cases against BetOnSports founder Stephen Kaplan and former chief executive David Carruthers. Lenis, 55, pleaded guilty to interstate transportation of gambling paraphernalia.

Rep. Robert Wexler, a Florida Democrat, and Rep. Steve Cohen, a Tennessee Democrat, warned U.S. Attorney General Michael Mukasey in separate letters the issue could lead to a potentially damaging trade spat between the United States and the European Union at the World Trade Organization. "In all likelihood, this issue will escalate and I understand could result in WTO action focused specifically on how the U.S. government enforces its laws. I cannot see how that can be in the interests of this country," Wexler said in a letter to Mukasey on Wednesday. European Internet gambling companies lost billions of euros in market value after Congress moved to shut down the U.S. market by making it illegal for banks and credit card companies to make payments to online gambling sites. (more) August 5th, 2008 - US Bill to Clarify Online Gambling Laws by Online Casino Reports 8 Aug 2008 at 11:14am Online Casino Reports - A United States Congressman has introduced a bill designed to clarify the 2006 Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA), which effectively banned Internet gambling by outlawing the transfer of funds from a financial institution to Internet gambling sites. Bill HR 6663, introduced by Republican Congressman Pete Sessions (Texas) specifically defines illegal online gambling as only gambling involving sports betting. It also grants amnesty to companies who willingly left the US market, and might even allow their re-entry into the US market. According to the bill, "No provision of this Act, or any amendment made by this Act, shall be construed as clarifying or implying that Internet bets or wagers, other than sports bets or wagers, which were accepted subsequent to October 13, 2006, are in violation of Federal law."Sessions said he singled out sports betting because it is already outlawed in 49 of the 50 states (with the exception of Nevada), that it provides potential for corruption of sporting events, and the fact that all federal prosecutions involving illegal gambling thus far have involved sports betting.

Since these are interim results the company did not include its net profit, but the figures nevertheless provide a snapshot of the current state of the company's business. 888 posted operating revenue of $69 million for the quarter, up 5% on the preceding quarter and 36% on the corresponding quarter in 2007. Net gaming revenue totaled $67 million, 4% more than in the preceding quarter, and 33% more than the $50 million in the corresponding quarter last year. Operating profit for the first half of 2008 rose 38% to $135 million from $98 million in the first half of 2007, and net gaming revenue rose 35% to $132 million from $97 million in the same period in 2007. 888 said it was pleased with the results for the second quarter and that it had made a good start to the third quarter. During the first 22 days of July, average daily net gaming revenue was approximately 2% higher than in the second quarter, driven mainly by emerging offerings as well as higher poker net gaming revenue. 888's net gaming revenue from poker for the quarter was unchanged at $20 million compared with the corresponding quarter, but totaled $42 million for the first half of the year, 2% more than the $41 million in the first half of 2007. July 30th, 2008 - Experts: Internet addiction growing by UPI / Moldova.org 31 Jul 2008 at 4:22am UPI / Moldova.org - The author of a book on Internet addiction says that 5 to 10 percent of the U.S. population is hooked with larger percentages in other countries addicted. Kimberly Young, clinical director of the Center for Internet Addiction Recovery, told Medill News Service that many addicts are hooked on one particular aspect of the Internet. The major ones include online gambling and gaming, sex sites, compulsive surfers and even addiction to eBay. Coleen Moore of the Illinois Center for Addiction Recovery said that she has seen young adults who spend 14 to 18 hours a day at their computers. At that point, the Internet is keeping them from work, family life and friendships outside the virtual world. Young compared the Internet to alcohol. Many people can use it and then turn to something else but some lose control. She said that treatment is in its early stages, depending on therapy. Young is the author of "Caught in the Net," a book on Internet addiction. She said that in some countries like Taiwan and China as many as 30 percent of computer users may be hooked. July 29th, 2008 - PayPal Sharing Customer Information With US Government? by Gambling 911 30 Jul 2008 at 1:37am Gambling 911 - Lots of people use PayPal but the online payment solution seems to care little about customer privacy. The US government has demanded these records in reference to offshore transfers, and PayPal will be fully cooperating. The Government is looking to crack down on those US citizens using offshore "tax havens". During a 16 month period at the beginning of the decade, PayPal was all the rage for the online gambling industry. It was already an established and known payment processor that made betting with offshore sports books and online casinos especially simple. Records dating back to that time will also be submitted to the IRS for review. Gambling911.com at the time had long warned its readers to stay clear of PayPal due to years of complaints related to the company. The news comes as prosecutors asked a Miami federal judge to require Swiss bank UBS AG to turn over information on its U.S. customers who may have used secret accounts to evade taxes. (more) July 27th, 2008 - Online Gambling Industry Should be Celebrating COPA Finding by Gambling 911 30 Jul 2008 at 1:35am Gambling 911 - Joe Brennan, Jr. - Founder of iMEGA.org - a trade organization dedicated to the right of privacy and freedoms over the Internet believes one of the best things that could have happened to online gambling in recent years is a 3rd Circuit court decision to strike down as unconstitutional a 1998 law intended to protect children from sexual material and other objectionable content on the Internet. "Again, the 3rd Circuit has shown why it may be the most important Court in the country when considering Internet rights and "digital civil liberties," Brennan, Jr. espoused. While the protection of children over the Internet is a concern of both the sex purveyor and online gambling industries, COPA was found to be too broad in its scope. In its ruling Tuesday, the federal appeals court concluded that the Child Online Protection Act also violates the First Amendment because filtering technologies and other parental control tools offer a less restrictive way to protect children from inappropriate content online. The court also ruled that the law is unconstitutionally overly broad and vague.

The terms and condition change affects all properties. 888.com has decided to reduce all affiliate earnings to 10% should a webmaster produce traffic that does no result in a conversion each and every month. This flies in the face of logic, as webmasters are to send traffic and programs are to convert the traffic. It also flies in the face of lifetime revenue agreements set in place when webmasters signed up at 888.com, and goes against the very principles of affiliate marketing. This policy punishes webmasters by stealing profits owed to them under the previous revenue share agreement should 888 fail to do their job and convert the players. 888 has had ample opportunity and warning to address this issue and they have refused to comment. July 16th, 2008 - McDermott Tries New Approach to Legal Online Gambling by PRNewswire-USNewswire 18 Jul 2008 at 12:18am PRNewswire-USNewswire - Rep. Jim McDermott (D-Wash.) introduced legislation yesterday that directs a potential $40 billion over the next 10 years to be spent on job training for those in the declining sectors of the economy and educational assistance for foster care youth. The legislation, Investing in our Human Resources Act of 2008 (H.R. 6501), would be funded through new revenue generated by regulated Internet gambling activities. We have an ideal opportunity to invest billions of dollars in American workers and our struggling economy without increasing the federal deficit, said Rep. McDermott in speaking about the Investing in our Human Resources Act (IHRA). IHRA would utilize a funding stream that would become available should Congress decide to legalize and regulate Internet gambling, which would protect consumers and collect tax revenue that is currently offshore. A provision in the legislation also encourages responsible Internet gambling behavior and an awareness of unsafe practices, something which has been praised by problem gambling advocates. (more) July 15th, 2008 - Canadian Professor Urges Regulate Online Gambling Study by Reuters 18 Jul 2008 at 12:15am Reuters - Canada and the United States should legalize and regulate online gambling to contain its potentially harmful effects because players tend to bet more frequently and aggressively than they do in casinos, a study released on Tuesday says. The study -- conducted jointly by academics of the University of Western Ontario in Canada and the University of Nevada at Las Vegas -- found that online gambling is readily accessible via the Internet even though it is outlawed or in a "legal grey area" in United States and Canada. Online gambling is big business, the study said, estimating worldwide spending at more than C$10 billion ($10 billion) a year. Betting online is a problem, the study says, because it has the potential to be more addictive than casino gambling. Online gamblers can hide their activity more easily than casino gamblers, and betting can quickly become a routine part of their daily lives.

The Attorney General's Bureau of Gambling Control, the state Gaming Control Commission and the Legislative Counsel will now recommend a structure for the system, analyze potential revenue and draft regulations to be included in the bill's language as it moves to the Senate Appropriations Committee in August, its final stop before a Senate floor. Poker Voters of America President Jim Tabilio said his organization, which serves as the bill's citizen sponsor, is extremely pleased with Tuesday's favorable Committee vote. "It's a good sign that the legislators are taking this issue seriously, understand the importance of the bill and are asking the right questions," said Tabilio.

Not so, his campaign says. The head of the Minnesota Gambling Control Board said that a solicitation for funds on the national website of the Barack Obama presidential campaign may constitute a raffle, which is a violation of Minnesota gambling laws. Tom Barrett, executive director of the board, said he will ask the state Department of Public Safety to look into the matter. The Obama campaign said Monday night that the solicitation does not constitute a raffle. "We are not conducting a raffle of any kind," said Nick Kimball, a spokesman for the Obama campaign in Minnesota. The Obama website, which is soliciting funds of up to $2,300, says anyone who makes a contribution to the Obama campaign of $5 or more between now and July 31 "could be one of 10 supporters chosen to meet Barack backstage" in Denver. (more) July 8th, 2008 - NC House Wants Contest Under Video Poker Ban by WAVY.com 10 Jul 2008 at 10:05am WAVY.com - A new online sweepstakes that law enforcement argues resembles video poker may soon be on its way out of North Carolina. The House tentatively agreed Tuesday to make illegal a new game showing up in convenience stores and truck stops. A complete ban on video poker took effect in July 2007. Democratic Rep. Ray Rapp of Madison County said the bill would eliminate a loophole in that law involving the prize contest. A customer buys a phone card and then can play a game on a computer terminal similar to video poker to reveal the prize. But the player can roll over winnings and keep playing or spend more money on phone cards. The bill passed by a vote of 116-1. A final House vote could come Wednesday. Newsfeed display by CaRP
