Judge Clarifies UIGEA

According to Gambling911, a 3rd Circuit Court upheld the UIGEA but made its language a little more clear. Imega submitted a press release, stating

"The 3rd Circuit decision on our UIGEA challenge came back this morning. They upheld the law, but as indicated by questions during oral arguments, they seem to be saying - 'if the state where the bet is placed says internet gambling is illegal, then processing that payment is illegal'...meaning that it is not illegal if the state doesn't have a law saying internet gambling is illegal."

Currently, only 11 states make it illegal to gamble online: Michigan, Illinois, Louisiana, Oregon, Wisconsin, Washington, Indiana, Nevada, New York, New Jersey and South Dakota. This is a step in the right direction!
