Online casinos have enjoyed
unbelievable growth on the Internet in recent years, and this
explosive expansion has come with much scrutiny and has created
quite the crowded marketplace. But the current state of online
casinos is healthy and ripe with new developments and news. The
online casinos industry is always exciting. Many websites now
cater to betting, and the poker craze that has hit online
casinos shows no signs of slowing down. Continued consumer
interest in sports gambling, with such high profile events as
the Super Bowl, soccer’s World Cup, and the NCAA March Madness
Tournament attracting bettors, online casinos continue to
experience great times. Despite the good news for online
casinos, and the increased profits and buzz, new debates over
the legality of online casinos and the morality of Internet
gambling are underway. The U.S. House of Representatives is set
to vote on a bill that would curb Internet gambling and severely
cripple the online casinos and the means by which consumers
deposit and withdraw their money in the over $12 Billion dollar
a year industry. Also, it has been reported that some online
casinos have not been able to deliver on their promises to give
prizes to their winning consumers.
Now, a new release says
that one of the top online casinos has delivered on its promise
to save players affected by another one of the top online
casinos who that was unable to send its tournament winners to
the World Series of Poker in July. An unfortunate situation
arose in the poker world this month when one of the major online
casinos was unable to meet their financial obligation to provide
World Series of Poker prize packages to ten of their players.
Instead of standing by idly, another one of the top online
casinos decided to do something to help these players and
offered to fund their Las Vegas trips and World Series of Poker
tournament buy ins. With the co-operation of the first gambling
portal, most of the players have now been contacted, their trips
have been re-organized and they will now be enjoying all the
benefits of being a part of the new firm’s family. The new
firm’s generosity even extended to upgrade the player's $11,000
package as won at the old firm, to a full $12,500, as given to
all players who had won seats through the new firm.
Poker forums and online casinos blogs around the globe have been
buzzing with the news since the announcement last week.
One of the players
affected, who goes by the nickname 'Caligard' had this to say "I
was one of the ones affected and this is an unbelievable
gesture. Thanks (to the gambling firm) for your unbelievable
generosity!"
Another player, 'Big Poppa' was also appreciative. "Wow! I mean,
wow!!! I was one of the winners of a Main Event seat from (the
first firm), and you have no idea what this means to me." |
