DonkBluffer,

Holland Casino is a government backed entity, the online site is going to be huge in the Netherlands. The government will almost certainly do everything in its power to sway Dutch players to the Holland Casino site over its foreign, unregulated, untaxed, offshore competitors, don't you think?

I think Holland Casino could very easily be Cryptologic's second biggest licensee (after Intercasino/Interpoker and ahead of William Hill) within a year. That would represent at least a 10% boost to Cryptologic revenues in very short order.

I'm not sure how adverse an impact this would have on Everest Poker. Why is it that Everest Poker is so popular in the Netherlands in the first place? I have my own theory, but I would be interested in hearing your view.
