any decent mg casinos for people in ny? dont like intertops, villento told me yes on live chat then no in email. maple still worked for me up until a few days ago. kinda in the cold here. lol.
No - it's power, money and above all political influence (all inter-related!) which has given the U.S. horse racing industry some truly shocking "carve-outs" or exemptions from every attempt to introduce anti-Internet gambling in the USA for years.
They seem to be generous with campaign contributions, and the media dedicated to the horseracing sector frequently boasts of its lobbying power and success in year after year achieving exemptions from legislation proposed by people like Goodlatte, Leach and Kyl (and most recently and successfully Frist)
More recently the leadership of the (horseracing) industry has been open about its ambitions to get into Internet-based wagering bigtime with suggestions of a centralised giant website with widespread links.
Like state-run lotteries they seem to have carte blanche in America, and it's led to some interesting relationships with other anti-online gambling bodies.
I think these folks are only opposed to online gambling when they're not getting a big slice of the action.
It's disgusting from both a commercial and political perspective imo, but its just a fact of life.
The Wire Act does not prohibit using telephones to gamble within a state.Forgot the reference link:

PS: How can they even entertain the idea that the Wire Act applies to internet gambling, but yet not for cell phones?
It would be interesting to see a study that compares problem gambling on the horses vs. gambling in the casinos - online and/or off.
dont like intertops,
Why don't you like Intertops? I'm afraid us New Yorkers don't have much choice with MG casinos. They're no 32Red, but they've been pretty good to me.
with all the problems i've had with neteller and click2pay, over the last few months, i prefer getting paid by check. intertops does not offer this option.
