So anyways I just got done watching CNBC's special about online gambling.
I must say some of the topics brought up on there yes I could see why there illegal. For example cock fights and dog fighting I personally think really shouldn't be seen a total forms of entertainment.
Yet they then brought up online gaming. They used screen shots from a few well known casinos. Such as Rushmore, a Vegas Tech Casino, and even an MGS casino.
Yet the only thing they wanted to show Americans was the crooked side of gambling. Such as the scam brought out by Ultimate Bet and Absolute Poker.
Yes I will agree there isn't anyway to tell each time we hit the spin button or the new hand button. There really isn't anyway to tell if were actually getting dealt a fair game each time, but at least if they have there RNG's audited and we have such places such as Casinomeister. We can actually trust a few out there. Even if there bending the laws and saying we can accept US Players.
I mean at least when I want to get paid by such places such as Jackpot Capital, iNetBet, Cherry Red and Casino Titan we can trust. That once our documents have been approved that we can see our payout in less than 48 hours. If were getting something such as a check or a wire it might take a bit longer, but at least we know were getting it.
Yet the only other point they wanted to bring up is it's taking billions out of economy. Actually in my opinion if we win, it helps our economy. Yet if we loose yes were supporting someone else, but at least it's to someone we can trust.
So in my opinion really CNBC didn't really give the online casino industry a fair trial. They didn't mention that there are places you can go to. To find a fair casino and actually have a chance on winning.
So anyways, I know this might sound like a rant, which is pretty much is, but it really kind of ticked me off that they really categorized the whole online industry as totally sketchy and illegal. When in fact because of a handful of operators the whole industry has gotten a bad rap they didn't need.
I really hope that the online gaming industry does get recognized here soon in the US as a profitable business. As something that really isn't so scammy as people see it. Yet until that point comes you'll get ignorant people like CNBC plastering the air waves with how bad it is. Just because of Ultimate Bet and Absolute Poker.
Thank you Casinomeister for at least providing us a place that we can actually trust casinos and there operators. With at least something 3rd party help if we can get it.
Here's the link to the web site if anyone wants to read parts of what they were talking about.
Eventually if I can find the special and anyone wants to see it. They can PM me and I'll let them know as soon as I find it.
