United States Department had given a special present to the poker community in the form of Wire Act. According to this act, all the wire communications that take place within states are not about any sporting event; do not come within the circle of wire act.

Would this law be effective against lottery tickets that are being sold within states? According to DOJ reply, poker doesn’t come under this act along with any other sporting activities. Poker Players Alliance has considered this ruling going in favor of online gamblers. It clearly convey the message that online poker is a legal sport and gamblers should feel them secured while investing in any of the online casinos.

The act enabled the online poker community to raise their voices strongly against the anti online gambling law that had marked a Black Friday in the history of online gambling. Now online casinos can go for their licensing from the concerned authorities in order to get more gamblers around the globe.

It is also expected that the federal government will start the procedure of licensing or some other regulations before the states move ahead with their own mixing of the law. In that case, the produced model would not be the best for the gamblers.

The government of Nevada has already started issuing license to the online casino and asked them to start their operations early 2012. It will serve as a great shift in online gambling and no doubt, a big confidence level for the gamblers.
