Responsible gambling is the only legitimate form of online gambling, so those who are interested in accessing casino and poker games through New Jersey-licensed operators should be aware that the state has published its regulations. These regulations are a draft based on the state's recent landmark decision to approve intra-state online gambling. They may be edited for a June 3 release when there will be a full public comment period. Below are the main points contained in the regs: All casino games approved in Atlantic City may also be offered over the internet, whether online or through a mobile device. Electronic and live versions of table games are permitted. Free-play versions of games will also be allowed. Players must create an account through an Atlantic City casino, either over the Internet in person. They must provide personal information including Social Security number, and agree to conditions including a commitment to not logging in outside of NJ. A number of deposit methods have been approved, including cash deposit at land-based Atlantic City casino, credit and debit cards and prepaid cards. For the purposes of responsible gaming, players may set loss limits, daily time limits and self-exclusions. When a player reaches $2,500 in lifetime deposits the system will block them until they acknowledge this information. A player that wishes to reset their password or change personal information must confirm their identify either in person or by answering at least two questions online. Unlicensed NJ operators face big fines, and a state-funded advertising campaign will educate residents on licensed operators.

The UEFA Champions League Final will take place at London's Wembley Stadium this Saturday night, and with a few days to go Bayern Munich is a clear favorite to defeat German rivals Borussia Dortmund. Final preview Bayern Munich head into Saturday's game with full confidence that they can secure their fifth European championship, after capping off their record-breaking Bundesliga season by finishing a staggering 25 points ahead of their nearest rival - ironically, their opponent for this weekend, Borussia. Both teams surprised more heavily favored Spanish opposition in the form of Barcelona and Real Madrid to reach Europe's biggest football game, but only one can return to Germany with the trophy. And judging by the odds, it seems Borussia are likely to be the runner-up in Europe as well. Betting odds At time of writing, William Hill Sports was offering odds of 2/5 on Bayern taking the title, with Borussia a 7/4 outsider. In the 90-minute match betting, the online bookmaker offered the following prospects: Bayern, 8/11, Borussia, 7/2, draw, 11/4. If you're looking for more betting action, Hill has it all. They offer 22 match markets including whether there will be penalties and whether any player can score a hat-trick, plus a range of goal, goal time and scorer markets. Go Retro Getting impatient for the game to start? Thanks to William Hill, you can play a retro sports video game featuring classic football content from German and English clubs. The tab pops up on your right when you check out the Champs League final betting odds.
The San Antonio Spurs look to advance one win closer to the NBA Finals when they host the Memphis Grizzlies tonight, but they will have to overcome an interesting fact to do so: in the first two rounds of the playoffs, Memphis lost Game 1 before recovering to defeat the Los Angeles Clippers and the Oklahoma City Thunder. Memphis will be fired up after a miserable Game 1 performance which saw them go down 105-83. In particular, star player Zach Randolph will be looking to atone for his two-point showing in the first game, which was his lowest score in 40 playoff appearances aside from a rookie game for Portland in 2002. The Spurs probably won't have it as easy as they did in Game 1, when they were able to shoot at 53 percent and hit a club playoff record 14 threes against what has been the NBA's best defense this year. SA led by 17 at quarter-time but can expect Memphis to come out all guns blazing from the tip-off tonight. In William Hill Sports' pre-game betting on tonight's NBA playoff game, San Antonio is 10/21 for the win while Memphis is listed at 7/4. The online sportsbook has plenty more to offer basketball fans, including spreads, total points and player specials. Hill is offering 15/8 on Tony Parker scoring 22 or more points and the Spurs winning, and 4/1 on Mike Conley scoring at least in a Memphis win. Memphis @ San Antonio is also the premium game on tonight's list of William Hill in-play betting events. Place live bets on tonight's NBA playoff game as it happens - no matter whether you're watching from home or following on the net, you can be a part of the action and hopefully win some cash.

Legal Online gambling is taking off in the United States, and already players are the main beneficiaries thanks to some innovative promotions like the one being offered by Ultimate Poker. Ultimate Poker's gambleUltimate Poker, the first online gambling operator to open its doors with a Nevada licence, has already, has already dealt out more than half a million hands and paid out $10,000 as part of its first tournament. But it came up with an innovative way this week to attract those left out of its Texas Hold'em games - Mac users. UP's licensed online poker site doesn't support Apple's OS X, so here is its solution: it is promising to cover the cost of emulating Windows on a Mac until it can provide an OSX version of its software. So now Apple fans can use Ultimate Poker's site like everybody else while also enjoying the other benefits of having Windows 7. Tip of the iceberg Ultimate Poker made history earlier this month by dealing the first legal, real-money online poker hand in the United States. Along with 888, it is one of the first companies to enjoy the benefits of a Nevada online gambling license, but this is just the tip of the iceberg considering that Nevada, New Jersey and Delaware have all licensed online gambling in some form in the past year. Crazy promotions are also just the tip of the iceberg. Ultimate Poker has no competition at present and yet it is still pulling out all stops to encourage players to try out its product. Just imagine what will happen once online casinos and poker sites are promoting themselves all over the US - players will be the beneficiaries as operators invent all sorts of new promotions and bonuses.

The UEFA Champions League Final, European football's biggest annual event, is fast closing in, and little separates German arch-rivals Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund as they prepare to face off against each other in rather unfamiliar territory - London's spectacular Wembley Stadium - on Saturday night. Underdog Dortmund have confirmed that German international Mario Gotze will miss the final after tearing his hamstring in the second leg of the semi-final win over Real Madrid. With speculation that defender Mats Hummels could also miss with an ankle injury, Bayern are now looking as strong favorites as the odds suggest. Bundesliga champions Bayern set records this season as they won 29 games and took 91 points to finish 25 points ahead of their closest rival Borussia in the German league. But while Bayern has prolific goalscorers such as Mario Mandzukic, Thomas Muller, Mario Gomez, Franck Ribery and Bastian Schweinsteiger, Borussia have their own options behind Marco Reus and Jakub Blaszczykowski. These two clubs have met three times this year for one Bayern win and two draws. Bayern beat Dormund 2-1 in the DFB Supercup on August 12, but more recently they played out 11-1 draws in Bundesliga fixtures played in Munich on December 1 and Dortmund on May 4. Nonetheless, none of these games had the pressure of the Champs League Final, which could prove to be higher scoring. In William Hill Sports' pre-game betting odds on the UEFA Champions League Final, Bayern is 4/9 favorite to claim the title while Borussia is 7/4 underdog. In the 90-minute match betting odds, Hill is offering: Borussia Dortmund, 19/5, draw, 13/5, Bayern Munich, 3/4. There are plenty more betting options for those who like to look beyond just the result. Hill is offering a staggering 97 other markets on this big game, with everything from Match Markets and Goal Markets to crazy and unique specials such as Total Match Cards, Time of First Goal and Race to X Goal.Live betting is what it's all about these days, and William Hill Sports is pulling out all stops with its in-play betting feature. Bet on a number of different markets on the UEFA Champions League live. Just click on the In-Play Betting tab to see your updated odds evolve as the game itself evolves.
