Judge in US District Court for the District of Rhode Island rules in favor of IGT, says federal Wire Act applies only to sports betting, not online poker or casino gaming.
Michigan signing on to share liquidity with New Jersey, Nevada, and Delaware could persuade Pennsylvania to follow suit and join the multi-state compact next.
No other states have submitted applications to join the interstate compact. If Michigan’s MSIGA application & suggested amendments are accepted, the door would open for BetMGM & PokerStars to challenge rival WSOP for top US online poker network.
If BetMGM NV indeed does go live, it would only be the second active online poker room in Nevada, ending WSOP’s nearly decade-long de facto monopoly.
With the 30-day extension on the IGT court case expiring this week, we could soon find out how Biden’s DOJ will deal with the Wire Act mess — and get clarity on US interstate online poker once and for all.
After taking on rival PokerStars and cementing its status as a top online poker operator in 2021, our brother site PRO predicts what could be next.
iGaming exec says PokerStars is “obvious” choice for online poker in CT; sports betting & casino will have FanDuel & Mohegan Sun branding.
If PokerStars were able to connect its three states into a single network, its flagship USA 'COOP branded series would be one of the largest online tournament series in the US regulated market.
Some degree of uncertainty will persist without action from DOJ, Congress or both, but it should not stop the proliferation of interstate US online poker, most attorneys agree.
The end to the Wire Act case is expected to change the face of legal regulated online poker in the US.
