Default Dreams Die Hard! Stanford Group Gives Little Hope for Online Poker

Check out the front page of gambling911.com today. There is a very good article; "Internet Gambling: Stanford Group Gives Repeal A 10% Shot."

In a nutshell the well respected Stanford Financial Group has given only a 10% chance that Congress will lift UIGEA.

In addition, the Stanford Group feels that there is only a 20% chance that a poker carveout will ever happen.

Also, the article notes that it would take between 1.5 and 2 years just to STUDY whether it is possible to regulate and tax internet gambling. So I guess it would take at least 4 to 5 years to actually get online gambling regulated and legal in the USA, if at all.

Check the article out for yourself, it has some really good info.
