About US - USA player's guide to gambling on the Internet

One of the fastest growing internet card games in terms of popularity is Backgammon. Unlike traditional online casino games like Baccarat and Roulette, Backgammon is considered a skill game. Although a game like blackjack can and should be played with a skillful strategy, blackjack is still considered a game of chance, and does not offer the same degree of skill that bettors can exercise while playing Backgammon. On the contrary, Backgammon is more like a game of poker or chess. In fact, many players describe Backgammon as a happy medium between checkers and chess - Offering players the chance to use in-depth strategy, but also providing a fun and entertaining game of simple structure. More and more internet casinos are beginning to offer Backgammon as part of their regular lineup of traditional games. And considering that Backgammon is designated as a skill game, it is well-equipped to slide under the radar of the recently passed Internet Gambling Prohibition and Enforcement Act. Consequently, internet gamblers should expect to see more of Backgammon in the online casinos. Real-time Backgammon software first hit the Web in 1992, which since time has developed and blossomed into a graphically intense and user-friendly software platform and playing interface. There are numerous commercial websites and casinos now offering this recreational game in real-time form in both play-for-fun and real-money betting environments. Two of the Web's largest search engine's, Yahoo and MSN both have their own offering of live games, which include Backgammon. Yahoo! Games has offered a Java-based Backgammon for nearly ten years, while MSN offers a sharp Backgammon game that can be played with ActiveX controls.

New Online Casino.biz - About US

Welcome to one of the Web's most comprehensive gaming sites dedicated to USA online gamblers seeking to play at the online casinos, online bingos and online poker rooms after the introduction of the USA Gambling Act on September 2006.

The new-online-casino.biz portal's mission is guide the real gamblers on throught the confused and contraddictory world of online casino & gambling.

At beginning we want provide legal information, with all reference to bills, act, laws, and jurisdiction act for a correct and most complete possible understandig od internet gambling online.

This site is focused on the U.S. Federal Unlawful Gambling Enforcement Act, part of Safe Port Act of 2006.

Most online gamblers or only courious casino's players from USA are confused about the new situation. We must provide, at beginning, some useful and preliminary informations on online gambling after the passing of Federal Unlawful Gambling Enforcement Act by the United States Senate on September 30, 2006:

- the new legislation will not criminalize individuals for playing casinos or poker online

- the bill will eventually attempt to prevent the transfer of funds to online gaming

- no immediate impact from the legislation, as the banking industry has 270 days to implement new rules after the bill is signed.

- Online Gambling Industry strategies are different each other, so you can find casinos that still accept usa players to wager real money, casinos that only restrict access to wager real money to USA gamblers residents in certain states, and casinos that's not accept them at all.

We understand also, that's any legal regulation in other countries, else than U.S., can be a stating point for understanding the global situation of internet online gambling.

So we have an UK internet gambling and betting section, with the bills relatet to this topic and we think that's uk gambling act it's wonderful for freedom of UK citizens.

We must provide any others countries internet gambling and betting regulations in specific section too.

We want end this introduction about us, with some words from the Annual Report 2005-2006 of UK Gambling Commission about remote gambling:

"As mentioned above, under the Gambling Act 2005, British based operators will be allowed to offer all types of remote gambling, whether via the internet, interactive television or any other media, within an effective system of licensing and regulation under the control of the Gambling Commission. Meanwhile, however, until the Act comes into effect in September
2007, the current unsatisfactory situation remains. Hence, no online casino gaming site can currently be lawfully established in the United Kingdom although residents of the United Kingdom are free to play on overseas sites, and those sites can accept bets from here without breaking any British laws. In contrast, betting sites can be located in Great Britain, where they are currently subject to no central regulation."

We want remark some words: " although residents of the United Kingdom are free to play on overseas sites, and those sites can accept bets from here without breaking any British laws."

We hope that's the UK regulation can be followed on the same freedom way by other countries too.
