Online gaming has been a great pastime for over a decade now, but one form of gaming which has seen a gigantic growth is the mobile gaming industry.
Internet gambling in the United States is off to a slower start than many had imagined, but regulators and industry observers expect it will flourish in time.
When the owner and CEO of Fertitta Entertainment walks into one of his three Golden Nugget casinos, one thing scares him — the changing landscape of the customers.
After several years of stonewalling any movement regarding online poker in the state, California’s powerful Indian tribes are now backing the move towards regulation in the state of the industry.
We all know how addictive regular gaming apps can become, even relative non-gamers like me, who need only wait barely two seconds after picking up my kid in the afternoon carpool before I feel the “tap-tap-tap” on my shoulder that tells me it’s time to hand over my
iPhone 5 so she can crush her next round of Temple Run 2.
Playstudio, the MGM Resorts International-backed social casino studio, has expanded the range of slot games available for Facebook and mobile devices with the launch of a new title on each platform.
The need for alternative tax revenue sources to help fix South Carolina’s disintegrating road network has prompted the state’s Democratic Party to ask state residents for their views on internet gambling legalisation, reports the WLTX television station.
Regulated online poker is a reality in New Jersey, Nevada and Delaware, but such states have a combined population of just 12.54 million compared to California’s population of 38 million.
The leagues asserted that New Jersey had a chance to be part of the initial sports betting setup, along with Nevada, however the Eastern state declined to take part at the time. Therefore, New Jersey missed its opportunity at being “grandfathered” into legal sports gambling.
With casinos revenues sliding, gaming officials and operators in Mississippi could be on the verge of making a sizeable gamble to protect the state’s interests.
Tilman Fertitta, who has online gambling operations in New Jersey via his
Golden Nugget casino, struck a similarly pessimistic tone, telling Summit attendees that online gambling had been “a bust” for his company.
It’s not looking good for the Minnesota Lottery’s attempts to drag itself into the 21st century.
When Internet poker went live in New Jersey, Nevada and Delaware in 2013, it appeared that it was just a matter of time before other states would follow suit and legalize too, leading to the eventual acceptance — or so poker players hoped — of online poker throughout the U.S.

Friday's report from the National Council of Legislators from Gaming States comes amid a contentious, costly battle over whether Internet gambling should expand beyond the three states where it is already legal — or whether it should be banned across the country.
The overwhelming demonstration over these three cases demonstrates that it is money rather than individual commitment or belief that is driving much of the discussion. The complete hypocrisy on both sides leaves supporters of online gaming and poker wondering where the “power players” are for the pro-side of the game and why they don’t speak up more vehemently.
Caesars Interactive Entertainment CEO Mitch Garber considers himself and his colleagues “The New Generation” of gambling executives, who are willing to take on the old school naysayers in order to follow their customers online.

Over 85 percent of Americans use the Internet and there are over 900 million users of social media around the world on any given day. As the Internet continues to fuel innovation for American consumers, Tribal governments are rightly pursuing all online opportunities as instruments for economic growth.
The results of a recent Fairleigh Dickinson University Public Mind poll first reported on by Wayne Parry of the
Associated Press do not bode well for online gambling advocates, as respondents were decidedly opposed to legalizing online gambling by over a two-to-one margin; 27% for and 63% against, with 10% undecided or without opinion.
SGMS’ gaming segment benefited most from the WMS acquisition, with revenue up nearly fivefold to $194.2m. Just under $31m of this came via the
Williams Interactive online gaming operations. The social gaming ranks of daily active users more than doubled to 1.3m, thanks in part to the Q1 launch of the
Gold Fish Social Slot.
