The effects of the new UK online gambling bill are starting to be felt as both All Slots Casino and All Jackpots Casino have stopped accepting new players from the UK (England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales). Both belonging to the established Jackpot Factory Group of Casinos, All Slots Casino and All Jackpots Casino are among the most popular online casinos with UK players recognized for their seniority, steady promotions and large collection of Microgaming games. UK Gambling Bill As it stands today, there are many online gambling operators that are physically located in offshore locations like Malta and Gibraltar, which cater to UK residents among others. The UK government passed a new gambling bill earlier this year determining that all online casinos which cater to UK residents are required to a hold a license in the UK and to pay taxes to the British government. The main goal of the bill is to increase the UK's gross gaming revenue, as operators which wish to keep catering to UK residents must register with a license in the UK and to be subject to pay tax at a rate of 15% on any profit that was generated from UK players. The laws are set to come into force next month, but were extended until January 2015 to give operators more time. Betway Casino While this situation is believed to be temporary until licensing issues will be sorted out between the casino operators and the UK authorities, players who access All Slots Casino and All Jackpots Casino from the UK are sent an e-mail where they are advised to open an account with Betway Casino. A veteran online casino, Betway Casino is widely popular with UK players with its offering of some 500 games and a welcome bonus worth up to $1,000.

One out of five young gamblers in New Jersey placed wagers in online form since online gambling was launched in the state. Behavioral Effects Since online gambling in the state was first regulated in November 2013, one in five New Jersey youth gamblers aged 21-24 wagered money in a land-based casino for the first time. These study results reflect the fact that online regulation encouraged more land-based gambling behavior among local youths surveyed as part of the Wave 2 of Commercial Intelligence's June 2014 New Jersey Player Survey, so that iGaming is effectively attracting younger players at earlier and earlier stages to physical casinos. The data has been gathered from a two-wave study exploring the positive effects of iGaming, reflected in a not unsubstantial decline in the percentage of online players playing at non-sanctioned sites. Trends The youth of the players is not the emphasis, but the encouraging movement of migration from illegitimate to legitimate sites. Research places the figure at 16 of the percentage of the reduction of players in June maintaining loyalty to the sites they had been using while February saw gains to 24 percent in February. The greater findings of the Wave 1 and Wave 2 reports of the study brought to light a wider indication of the greater diversity of US online gambler behavior across a multitude of technology platforms available for the iGamer to play on today. Devices such as laptops, smartphones and tablets have increased the pace at which players can access online games, as well as place wagers. The key is to make this behavioral dynamic work for society, in terms of the impact of online gambling regulation on states thereof. Innovative Research The use of the latest technology to play provides market feedback as well, as players can across the iGame online platform provide information important to affiliate outreach efforts such as player responses to various play incentives, brand loyalty, customer service ratings, and general problems players encounter. The positive effects of online gambling are slowly being explored, and sometimes they come in surprising packages.

A few months ago, Spanish soccer was dealt a blow when they international men's team was ousted in group play. From 2008-2012, Spain was the world's powerhouse team, winning 2 European Championships and the 2010 World Cup. Spain's "tiki-taka" style of play seemed outdated and obvious during the World Cup and Vicente del Bosque has opted to change things up before the current round of international play. Battle of the Gods Spain and France meet tonight at Stade de France, the venue for the 2016 European Championships Finals. Anyone would agree that these teams would be an excellent final match for the European Championships and we are lucky to be able to see them face off in tonight's friendly. The Spanish side was dealt a blow earlier last week when Andres Iniesta, the star midfielder for Barcelona, announced he would be withdrawing from tonight's game and Monday's match against Macedonia with a knee injury. Spain will not be calling upon any replacement player as del Bosque wishes to stay with his named 22 man roster. The team will also be without Xavi Hernandez and Xavi Alonso, that both announced their retirement from international play. The Spaniards will have many new faces on the pitch tonight, which could say something as to where the team is headed. Paco Alcacer (Valencia), Koke and 3 other young player's will have added responsibility and could play central roles in tonight's match. France's side will not be much different than the one we saw defeated by Germany 1-0 in the World Cup Quarterfinals. Didier Deschamps has faith in his first team and has the home advantage on his side. They will be without their star defender Laurent Koscielny (Arsenal), following a nasty head collision on Sunday. Winner Sports' Betting Odds France are Winner Sports' favorites for tonight's match at 2.45 to Spain's 2.87. It may be wise to think about a draw, as the line is an attractive 3.20. There are also Correct Score, Half Time/Full Time Result and additional markets available for punters interested in making online sports bets.
According to reports, an online gambling bill is likely to be introduced to the Bahamas House of Assembly this week. Original Restrictions Opposed Originally proposed in May 2013, the regulation of online gaming as law was rejected due to a clause allowing tourist play online and at land-based casinos only if the player's country of origin allowed it as well. Bahamanian Parliament member Leslie Millar disclosed that passage of the gaming bill currently on the agenda of the House of Assembly could be debated as early as this week. Millar, a proponent of online gambling in the Bahamas, remains staunchly opposed to any restrictions placed on residents that are not placed on tourists. Millar, a member of the 1968 Bahamas Olympic track team, has already refused to support any contentious parts that might appear on the incoming bill proposal, “We will not sit back and allow Bahamians who have gone out there and built an industry to be disadvantaged; that’s my greatest concern.” Current Limits Under Consideration What is known about the new bill proposal is that it would limit provision of online gambling to current land-based casino companies only. The restrictions to which Millar objects were on principle intentionally included in the original proposal language, according to Minister of State for Legal Affairs Damian Gomez. That restrictiveness along with regulation and taxation provisions raised an inordinate amount of controversy, even contributing to the removal of former Gaming Board Chairman and bill opponent Dr. Andre Rollins from his post last month. Restrictions on play is not a new idea, but a duplication of some policies seen before in countries allowing land-based casino play, such as South Korea and other predominantly Asian countries. There are many voices in the Bahamanian Parliament weighing in on the issue, and it remains to be seen how restrictive the final regulatory policy for online gambling in the Bahamas will be. This incoming debate will give a strong and possibly final indication.
Deal or No Deal is one of the most appealing progressive slot games at Jackpotjoy because of the potential to win six-figure sums. Just recently, there was another major win on the Deal or No Deal progressive slot, with a player managing to score an incredible £153,757. What was even more astonishing is how the player managed to win on the 5p jackpot. Three Jackpot Levels Prior to start Deal or No Deal, players have to choose whether to play for the 5p, 10p, or 20p jackpot, with each featuring its own jackpot. As expected, the jackpot value increases depending on the coin size. The design of the slot features five reels and 20 paylines, so it’s relatively straightforward to get to grips with. Three Bonus Rounds The first is the Mystery Bonus Round, which features 15 sealed boxes and 11 cash prizes, with the round ending if an empty box is opened. Randomly, the Banker will phone the player during the action and present the player with a cash offer. The Deal or No Deal Bonus Round is the last and can only be won with three bonus symbols and a max bet on all 20 of the paylines. £500k Win the Biggest Ever Looking back at the largest ever wins on the 5p version of Deal or No Deal, the most impressive came when a player won £543,606, racking up more than half a million. These wins are particularly impressive because the 5p progressive jackpot starts from £2,000, so it can take a little time to reach six figures. Introducing Jackpotjoy Jackpotjoy is powered by software from Gamesys, which is known for being one of the creative forces in developing casino games. There are many more progressive jackpots to play for at Jackpotjoy, including Wonderland, Tiki Temple, Diamond Bonanza, and Friendzy. New players can deposit £10 and play with £35.
