Despite the positive progress made in the efforts to sanction online poker in the Golden State, it is almost certain that no legalization of online poker will occur in 2013. The reason for this is the upcoming dismissal of the current California General Assembly session in the 6 th of September. It is only in this assembly where the bills for the legislation of online poker can be voted on. The only way in which these bills can pass is the gathering of a special session of the assembly, something which is very unlikely to happen. Infighting to Blame Much of this can be attributed to the everlasting interior conflict between the different promoters of online poker bills - the lobbies of horse racing tracks, Indian gaming and California poker room just can't seem to come to an agreement which will satisfy all sides. The Indian tribes are deterred from the legislation of online poker mainly because of a fear that this will nibble at their revenues; there is also a worry that they, specifically, will be denied from offering online poker, as some bills have already offered. California - A Potential Gaming Gold Mine A positive step by Californian legislators towards online poker could play a vital role in the advancement of online poker and gaming in general in the rest of the states. California is the biggest state in the country. With a population of over 38 million residents, an online gaming market in the state could bring some gigantic profits.

A few airports around the United States have been trialing electronic gambling at their facilities, but these have largely failed - proving that genuine mobile gaming is still a preferred choice for players. Minneapolis Airport Trial Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport became one of the first American airports to trial electronic gambling with iPad games in bars and restaurants in January, but figures released this week by local paper The Star Tribune show that passengers spent just $33,586 on the machines in their first six months. The games were expected to raise $3 million to help fund the new Minnesota Vikings NFL stadium. They were part of the state's original plan to fund its $348 million share of the stadium. Even more disappointing for the state is that 85 percent of the revenues have been returned to players as prizes, and a large portion has gone to rent and taxes. According to the report, the foundation that installed the games has earned about $1,900 for its airport gaming projects. Mobile Gambling Preferred As the egaming experience in largely legalized and regulated Europe has shown, mobile gambling is more popular than fixed terminal mobile games because it allows players to access the games via their own devices. Players love the convenience of taking the games with them where they go, hence the explosion of mobile gaming in recent years. Some of the most popular mobile gambling operators include William Hill, All Slots Mobile and bet365. Once online and mobile gambling are properly legalized in the US, Minnesota and US states will begin to understand the potential that the industry has to offer.

Spain has revived its centuries-old diplomatic dispute with the United Kingdom over Gibraltar, attacking a rather surprising victim - the many online gambling companies that are stationed on the Rock. Spanish sabre-rattling The war of words between the UK and Spain heated up over the weekend, when Spanish Foreign Minister José Garcia-Margallo told his counterparts that "the party is over" after complaining that an artificial reef created by Gibraltar had damaged Spanish fishing grounds. Garcia Margallo told a local media outlet that his country, which has never officially recognized the UK's 300-year rule over the Rock, was considering retaliatory measures against Gibraltar - including demanding that locally based online gambling firms use Spanish servers and pay taxes to Madrid. Online Gambling Haven Gibraltar, as those familiar with the online gambling industry would know, has been a haven for casino and poker operators for many years. More than 15 companies are based on the Rock, including 888, Bwin.party, William Hill and Ladbrokes, employing more than 1,800 people - many of whom cross over from Spain for their day jobs. In an ironic twist, the Spanish threats toward these companies broke out at the same time as online gambling firms and the Gibraltar government threatened legal action to stop the UK from introducing a new 15% online gambling point-of-consumption tax. Gibraltar-based online gambling firms currently pay 1% tax on total online revenues.For a full list of legality around the world, click here.
