    Default Nic X and his online gambling hate

    Has anyone had a look at the proposed changes to the IGA that Nick boy has proposed.

    these are meant to be cancellation of unprocessed credit card transactions rules when using online gambling.

    however, he has hidden away a increase to the scope of the provision of gambling services to include inducements to gamble.

    If the same person provides play money games and real money games then the play money games are broadly meant to be illegal activities as well.

    As to what person means (ie same entity, same corporate group, same ultimate controller or whatever....) I gather generally it would mean the same company, individiual... so limited impact maybe

    But WTF, i mean play money games really why? sure they might actually be an inducement to gamble but many people only ever play play money and never risk their cash.

    I just think it is over the top BS.
    Kd FTW

    Pretty sure the courts have already ruled this to be the case under the current IGA - this is probably just a matter of clarifying this in the actual legislation - play money sites are free to go wild - as long as they don't induce people to gamble on real money sites.
