Do you think online poker should be legalized?

[Bawse]

Online poker has strict laws for example most sites don't allow players worldwide because of licensing, and laws in country's/states. I've been hoping for years that the bigger sites would be able to accept all players without limits.

Do you agree online poker should be legalized? Do you think it'll ever happen?

I can see why they wouldn't gambling addiction is an issue and I don't think the addiction should be made easier.

Would be nice. Poker seemed so much better before the US went dark.

I thought that online poker was legal, for as long as it was hosted in the Cayman's or something. Though, you need to bypass your country with a VPN...

But, no, I don't think it will ever be globally legal. Every country wants those tax dollars from pots. It would take a lot of worldwide cooperation to make that happen, and you know the US would have the last word with how much they want in taxes.

It is safe to say that online poker has been legalized. It is just a matter of the different laws that exist in different countries. Most popular countries have legalized online poker, although some still please some restrictions on it which is understandable.

Yes, it's legalised in some countries. What they have to do is to put down the guidelines to follow to ensure that it is protected and can be done fairly.

Legalization or not, online poker games will continue to be played. It is even more reasonable for government to legalize it and start collecting tax proceeds from online poker sites. Online poker games like other online business is very difficult to regulate and tax them.
