It is important to note that the U.S. only accounts for half of the market, as there are huge markets outside the country, one of the biggest being the United Kingdom. The U.K. is one of the biggest markets to regulate online gambling. However, as a way to respect the United States'restrictions, online casinos, and gambling operations in the U.K. do not accept U.S. players, making it more difficult for Americans to access reputable casinos and organizations. The problem here is that U.S. based players will be less protected and more likely to be cheated by a shady online casino. Lobbyists for the online gambling industry are urging Congress to repeal the law.
