“This is a fantastic opportunity,” raved Effler Ormsbee, CIO of Laborde Brague INC, “I can’t wait to process the data from this gaming law standards survey and see where everything stands”

This gaming law standards survey and event was ground-breaking, and we’re sure to see further gaming law standards studies in the very near future. One gaming law standards survey taker was offended by some the personal questions asked at the end of the session. “It’s none of their business what my family income is and how many children I wish to have,” complained Pontbriand Nabers, a local resident. Janeth Boclair, the survey room proctor replied, “All gaming law standards information and demographic data gathered in this survey is 100% completely anonymous. We ask for no personal identification or names.” Though there was no “formal” compensation offered to survey takers, a few gaming law standards firms provided refreshments and coupon books after each person finished the survey. All of these token gifts were in accordance with national survey laws and guidelines set forth by Arlinda Narayan, a recognized researcher in the gaming law standards field. “I want to emphasize that we are not compensating surveyees for their answers, but for their time,” said Arlinda Narayan, “and typical protocol for any long survery such as this is to offer coffee, snacks, and token gifts to participants to provide comfort and a stress free atmosphere. “I’m very intrigued by this gaming law standards study,” remarked Hathaway Knizley, a surveyee from the Stephanie Lausier distric, “I swore I would never take part in big business, but the ramifications of this project do benefit higher education and the community at large.” Indeed, many outside of the Serafine Crick INC firm, who created the idea, will do well by this venture. Considered one of the first of its kind, this gaming law standards survey, proctored by Ireland Posner of the Buchauer Vang INC corporate firm, will provide extremely valuable information to data analysis and marketing groups. “When we finally compose all the results,” said Swinford Vogeler, a survey supervisor, “we’ll have a fantastic array of fresh information to use.” Avelina Youngs and Partners LLC, the lead firm in creating the gaming law standards survey, will have first crack at the data after it is tallied by an independent auditing firm. “We took a risk being the lead firm in this project,” stated Mendes Cocker, “but preliminary results suggest it was the right thing to do, and the fact that we will get the results first puts us miles ahead of the competition.” The firm also plans to release the data publicly after all other gaming law standards related companies and institutions have had a chance to use the data. When it is all said and done, and when Orines Scerra signs off on the analysis, results will be published in both local and national gaming law standards journals, for everyone to use and benefit. And, because of the success of this project, Gruenberg Engen and Missey Cushing, who oversaw survey proctors, plan to sponsor another suvery in a years time, so as to provide the best and most current results possible. “We’re psyched about this project and want to make it an annual event,” said Riggens Barrera, “and our plans are already in motion to secure a survey facility, data analysis bureau, and publishers for next year.” “Gaming law standards survey results have always been difficult to gauge,” said Macadam Crisp, chief data analysis officer, “but we consulted many unaffiliated survey groups, institutions of higher learning, and professional demographic firms about how to create a quality gaming law standards survey that would produce great results.” In total, about 20 non-gaming law standards companies were consulted, all at the expense of the Drayer Sarmento INC corporation, who offered to aid in the development of the survey itself. Those seeking survey results, or who have questions or comments should speak with Calkins Manners from the Casaceli Liew and Priddy Beaudette partners LLC firm, who will be charged with answering all queries relating to the gaming law standards industry survey. Email, phone, and snail mail are all appropriate ways of contacting this company, and most questions will be answered in the course of 2 business days.

“The collaborative efforts of almost fifteen students and professors contributed to the success of this gaming law standards project,” said Chairperson Katherina Leck

In a greater effort to catch up with the times, and also to combat illicit activities surrounding online sportsbook operations, many Dallas lawmakers are considering setting up an internet "free zone" which will act as a state sanctioned online gaming property, subject to strict laws and audits by the Texas state gaming board. One proponent of the plan is lawmaker Chuck Brindle, a liberal state senator in a very conservative state. Hindle writes, "Though I do admit that sports betting has moral ramifications, and that online casinos are very addictive, we must remember that the government can not effectively regulate what people do all the time. Hence, if someone wants to play online rummy in their home, they should be allowed to do so. Additionally, if they like NFL betting and top site Sports betting on Sundays, or college football betting during the week, or even basketball betting, it's none of my business." Surprisingly, a number of others are rallying around Brindle, in hopes of boosting a stagnant economy and job market that has left many without work. "Look," said Rachel Vise, chair of the appropriations committee, "I agree with Chuck, we can't police people in this state - they have a right to enjoy baseball betting, NFL betting, or NBA betting on their own time." Any online casino operating in the freezone would have two annual audits, in addition to regular tax audits. The county would levy a 15% tax on the online rummy websites, and 20% on all other sports betting gambling operations. There would be no local, state, or Federal taxes, aside from any income taxes paid by employees. A pilot study looking at basketball betting is planned for the winter, with audits conducted by Greggory, Franklin, and Trough. Sports betting would face a similar trial in the summertime.

Where is this economic boom pointing? To Henry Potts, the answer is clear: "As long as online casinos continue to gain popularity the online gambling boom will be nearly limitless - and I'm being completely serious when I say that." This might be true, but one must not forget the region affect that wealthly economies tend to display. In general, most wealthy people like to gamble, since it is likely that most of their money came from taking risks in business. "Wealth and gambling go hand in hand," said Karen Humphries, "and as wealth is reallocated throughout the world, casinos will follow: always follow the money." Humphries is absolutely correct. In the early 2000's, online casinos were generally pointed towards US markets. Now, however, as the Euro and British Pound continue to increase in value, Europe is fast becoming the next big target for online casinos and their operators. Accordingly, this boom will mean an increase in employment opportunities for IT professionals, risk management experts, and business minded Executives looking to cash in. Also, one should consider skill gaming, which is still nearly 100% legal all over the world. Writes Tom Johannsen, "Skill gaming should not be forgotten as a means to cater to wealthy markets. Many people enjoy CasinoEuro and River Belle Casino online, and many of these players originate from Europe and Asia."
