Re: The key to getting online poker legalized
[ QUOTE ]
to be legalized, the government would probably tax the casinos as well... don't know if that's the right wording, but the casinos would pay the government. I believe this is how all the NV casinos do it (which is why there is no state tax)... Don't know where I heard it from and I can't believe it to NOT be true, but I believe US casinos are trying to get online casinos legal and regulated. I would assume how the online casino is taxed or whatever would be mainly based on how a B&M casino is taxed

Yeah, the government wouldn't be able to tax casinos/poker rooms that are based in other countries afaik, but they'd make a killing from American owned/operated/regulated sites.
Of course our B&M casinos would love to offer their poker & games to the public via the internet, but I really don't think this will happen in the forseeable future.
