News reports suggest that widespread legal online poker in USA is just around the corner. New Jersey is the first state to allow people to gamble online. Many of the casinos, including Borgata and Caesars, have opened up online sites.
If you are a resident of New Jersey, then you can even play on Party Poker. This was one of the first online poker sites. They voluntarily left the U.S. market after UIEGA passed, but now they are back.
The great thing about the legalization of online gambling is that it makes it much easier for the average person to play. There are multiple online casinos in New Jersey. These sites are also regulated and safe to play at. In the past, you had to make due with offshore gambling sites that were unregulated. Many of these offshore gambling sites failed to pay players. Now that there are legal websites run by casinos located in the United States, you can feel safe playing.
There are also online horse racing betting websites. One of the most popular is TVG. New Jersey has partnered with TVG and you can bet on the races after opening an account. You can also o bet on horse races that are run across the country. There are races in California at Santa Anita and Del Mar. Some other large venues that are available for online wagering are: Churchill Downs in Kentucky and Saratoga Racetrack in New York.
The next state that appears to be close to legalizing online gambling is California. Once these large states have their operations up and running, many other smaller states will likely follow suit. This is good news for gamblers all across the country.
