    Just like I predicted a few months back about Mega Casino Corporations moving in on the Internet Gambling scene once the bill was signed into law last year. Check this article out

    Washington, DC) -- Two Nevada lawmakers have introduced a bill that calls for an independent study of Internet gaming. Congresswoman Shelley Berkley and Congressman Jon Porter's bill would require the National Academy of Sciences to study various aspects of on-line gambling, including its impact on minors and compulsive gamblers, and ways federal and state officials can regulate the practice. The American Gaming Association, which represents the casino industry, calls the bill "a responsible step in the right direction." Last year, Congress banned Internet gambling in the United States. Massachusetts Congressman Barney Frank has introduced a bill that would repeal the ban. A hearing on the measure is scheduled for sometime next month.

    Some day there might be a Stardust online for you to play at. Or if someone is 86'd from a land based casino will they be 86'd from their online sister casino?
