Czechs Join Online Gambling Community

A lot of people in the online casino business and online gambling community have their hopes high for 2009 to bring some change in the global approach to their hobby. While governments such as the UK's lead the liberal front of regulating the market, others follow the opposite course.

Surely no one expected the good news to best UK casino players be coming so early in the year!

Czech Republic
Not yet back from our New Year's vacation and we already hear reports that the Czech Republic will allow local companies to compete in the already thriving, albeit illegal, online gambling market.

What has been going on for the past several years is that the status of online gambling site was left un-regulated; foreign companies were allowed to operate all this time.

A press release from iGaming Business reports that Internet betting is officially allowed from January 5, which means the market is open to local Czech companies.

Taking care of the people
Players will have to register at stores around the country, which will involve showing identification documents, in order to play online. This will help prevent underage gambling game.

With 2009 Beginning, Florida Turns To Powerball Lottery Gambling

The Powerball lottery game is one that is enjoyed by many top online casino gambling states. One of the states that will be enjoying the game in the new year will be Florida.

The Sunshine State has recently added Powerball to the list of lottery options that they offer. Not only are they joining the Powerball crowd, they are becoming the central state in the gambling game operation.

"Having Florida be the home of Powerball was merely icing on the cake. We asked for it, we negotiated with the other states, and they readily agreed. They saw the potential of first, having Florida in Powerball, and secondly, understanding how having the drawing located in the state offered an incredible array of tourism, promotional and marketing opportunities," said Florida Lottery Secretary Leo DiBenigno.

DiBenigno was referring to the fact that Florida will be the place where the drawing for Powerball will be held. The drawing up until now had been held in Iowa, but that will all change with Florida entering the picture.

The first drawing for Floridians to participate in Powerball will be held on Wednesday January, 7th. The tickets will go on sale for that drawing on Sunday.
