I'm starting to get a little bit worried.
Why?
Because here in Holland online gaming will soon lose its illegal status.
Aint that a good thing then?
No, not really.
The same happened in France last year and as a result, French players got banned at almost every reputable online casino out there.
I'm afraid I'm a bit lost at this point.
In the USA, its illegal and as a result US players are getting banned.
In France, its made legal, and as a result, French players are getting banned.
This week I wanted to play some Playtech for a change and tried to sign up at one of the accredited Playtechs here.
Totesport no longer accepts Dutch players, same goes for Bet365.
Rival casinos no longer accept Dutch players.
Existing accounts are still open, but for how long?
Does anyone know what will happen exactly when online gaming becomes legal and regulated here?
I know online gaming sites will need to have a licence soon if they want to offer service to Dutch players, and Betway for example is trying to get one.
Will I soon be left with only a bunch of Costa Rican RTG sh*tholes?
And a crappy online version of Holland Casino? (which is owned by the Dutch government)
That would be the end of online gaming for me...
