Las Vegas Casinos Online in 09?

An interesting report/video (see below) from KLAS this week that suggests that the casinos of Vegas are preparing to look again at online gambling. Of course, we had one false start a few years back, but with the credit crunch taking it’s toll on gambling in Nevada according to a recent report, it’s not really a surprise. What is more surprising is that they didn’t follow this through years ago…the online casino industry has been booming and many see it as recession proof, which from the figures I’ve seen recently, I’d have to go along with.

Here’s the KLAS report as aired on CBS: http://cbs2.com/video/?id=88699@kcbs.dayport.com.

It’s short and clearly not very well researched, stating incorrectly that online gambling is illegal in the USA. But nonetheless, the message is interesting.

In the past, the land-based casinos have seen online gambling as a major threat. Indeed Harrahs themselves funded the campaign of a US senator who just happened to be trying to push through an Act banning US residents from gambling online in 2006. But now it seems that they are starting to sing a different tune and although US players have been able to play some of the popular Las Vegas games online (see Vegas casinos online) for some time now, it is somewhat ironic that the very thing the casinos saw as a threat to their livelihood may turn out to be a saviour! 

Whatever, it’s still a very sensible move and it might help to put to bed the false notion that online gambling is illegal across the US.
