Did you know that West Virginia has regulated online poker since 2019? However, the state’s small population halted gambling corporations that run online casinos and sports books from opening any online poker rooms. That is about to change!

In a statement by the West Virginia Lottery Director John Myers, he states “I am pleased that our West Virginia iGaming providers will now have the opportunity to offer multi-state poker to our players, and this will greatly increase the potential pool of participants and thus allow our players to play for bigger winnings.”

Let's go West Virginia!

Good mews at last for poker players in that state. Hopefully the rest of the country wakes up and stops the insanity and we can all play again.

Hopefully if enough states do this we will get a federal solution.

Despite the fact that the legalization process in the United States continues, the main thing now for the fate of legal online poker in the country is the question of further actions by the Ministry of Justice to implement its new requirements for gaming operators. In this situation, there is a lot of behind-the-scenes fighting and unexpected decisions can be made at any moment.

Here in brazil, Poker is allowed but the current government plans to tax Poker winnings. I'm very afraid of this because depending on your income, income tax here can reach 27%...
All governments want to do by regulating something is to take their share of the pie... So don't worry, the regulation of Poker in the USA will happen...
