For Breaking Internet Gambling News, Stay Tuned to Casino Gambling Web
Las Vegas, Nevada (PRWEB) July 29, 2007 -- Since July of 2006, Casino Gambling Web has been reporting breaking news about Internet gambling legal issues that United States citizens care about -- and they are still the most aggressively aware gambling site (http://www.casinogamblingweb.com/) on the net. Today they are announcing expanded coverage of all US Internet Gambling Legal Issues as the Neteller case comes to a close, Gambling Bills progress in the House of Representatives and lawsuits are brought up against the United States Department of Justice.
In July of last year CGW (http://www.casingamblingweb.com/) reported on a Bill that was shot down in congress. It would have completely banned Internet gambling, and when it was reported that the bill did not go through, the Internet gaming community gave a collective sigh of relief.
However, Casino Gambling Web reporters were closely following the topic and they knew the year was not yet over, that there was still a chance for a new bill to be brought up before congress adjourned. When the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act was attached to an unrelated Port Security Bill in October of 2006 by Senator Bill Frist, Casino Gambling Web was the first to report on its passing.
Since then much has happened in the industry, from sites pulling out of the US market, to arrests of CEOs of major gaming companies, to the case against NETELLER, to Barney Frank's proposed legislation to regulate Internet gambling. Casino Gambling Web has reported thoroughly on every aspect and many visitors are happy they have found a site to get their information.
"Casino Gambling Web is the only site I really pay attention to," said one person when asked where he gets his Internet gambling news. "They are so into helping the actual players get their rights back and they are the first to report major news," the man said. He wishes to remain anonymous.
"We have reporters closely watching the Bill that Barney Frank introduced to legalize and regulate Internet gambling," Gordon Price, CEO of Casino Gambling Web said. "We are extending our coverage and allowing more writers to submit news to us about any legal issue related to gambling laws in the United States."
The following April they started the 'Public Outrcy Campaign', which urged those interested in repealing the UIGEA to call their congressmen and senators using five talking points outlined in their campaign.
A couple weeks later they started an online petition (www.thepetitionsite.com/petition/306149419) that has grown to over 6,000 valid signatures from American citizens, which will be hand delivered to every congressman and senator in Washington D.C.
"We have representatives going to Washington D.C. to talk to politicians on behalf of the millions of Americans who feel they have lost a right and freedom with the passing of the UIGEA," Price said.
"There is no site online that is more proactive about Internet gambling issues than us," he added.
CGW often is the first news site to report news, but rarely gets credit for it, such as when just recently they were the first to report the release of Neteller funds to US customers. After CGW released the news, several other sites got the information from Casino Gambling Web and reported on it as if it were there own breaking news story.

Summer is considered the "off season" in Las Vegas as many tourists pass on the desert destination in the heat of July. But July 2008 was more off than usual, as challenging economic conditions continue to take their toll. Last week the Nevada Gaming Control Board issued their monthly report indicating that gaming revenues were down 12.97% in July 2008 compared to July 2007. Clark County turned in worse numbers than even the state average; Strip revenues were down 14.67%, downtown dipped 16.39% and Mesquite was off 32.42%. + more.
