Further legalization of online gambling is scheduled to be discussed in New York State. Rep. J. Gary Pretlow is going to introduce the bill to further legalize online gambling. In particular, slot machines and table games such as Roulette and Blackjack must be legalized.
According to Pretlow, however, the bill for legalizing online gambling will not be passed without a fight. “There is a lot of resistance in Parliament. That's not a secret. Everyone knows that there is resistance in parliament, but I want to overcome that resistance.”. Since sports betting was legalized in the state of New York, a lot has been wagered by the residents of New York. This can pose a problem for the legalization of other casino games in the state. “ In any case, it could make it more difficult after how the rollout went, because people see that there is a great hunger for gambling. Many people are concerned that there is too much gambling. some people want to retreat a little.”
Online Poker has been legalized in New York State for some time. In previous attempts to legalize online casino games, the state has separated and classified online poker as a game of skill. According to Pretlow, it would be weird to allow sports betting and then ban casino games “in mobile sports betting, the thinking pattern was that the server where the betting they were placed in a casino. Then the same should be thought when gambling in an online casino”
