Poland Finalizes Online Casino Ban

Casino News - November 22nd, 2009 - Written by Glen

gamblingThe online casino industry has been faced with tough times, and now another sovereign nation has gone ahead with a ban against online casino gaming. Poland has ostensibly banned online casino gaming.

Land gambling has also taken a hit following the gambling bans in Poland, leaving many venues out of previously had revenue. While some locations will still offer a form of gambling or another, most slot games and other forms of casino gaming have already been declared illegal. No future gambling options are to be expected.

Poland has joined the ranks of the United States, Israel, Russia, India, and several other nations that, in one way or another, limit or prohibit online gambling. For Poland, this ban comes very shortly after a scandal that had gripped their upper echelon of government, leading to possible questions of whether or not this ban has been enacted to obfuscate the actual implications of scandalous nature.

The European Union has recently filed motions with the World Trade Organization over the United State's limitations against online gambling, so questions are being asked about whether this ban will remain consistent with the European Union's overall stance on online gambling. Online gambling has once again proven to be a breeding ground of hypocrisy in government, according to the opinion of one lowly Internet reporter.
