Hawaii Gamblers Have Taxing Problem
March 11, 2010
Hawaii does not have any casinos but that is not stopping the state from collecting revenue from gambling activities. A change in the tax code could net hundreds of thousands of dollars for the state from the residents who gamble in other states.
Under a new law, gamblers who win a jackpot will be required to pay taxes on their winnings, but they will not be able to deduct their losses. If a video poker player loses $3,000 playing video poker and then hits a $4,000 royal flush, they will have to pay taxes on the $4,000. Under the old tax law, the player would have been able to deduct the $3,000 loss and only pay taxes on the $1,000 net win.
Hawaiian lawmakers pushed for the change to help ease the state’s multi-billion dollar deficit. Governor Lingle has until July 15th to veto the new tax code or it will become law. Many gamblers in the state feel that the new law in unfair and unjust. Over the course of a year most gamblers will lose money and it is unfair that they are taxed on the few times when they get lucky.

Casino Companies Favor Online Gambling
March 11, 2010
Many years ago when online casinos started appearing on the Internet, the owners of the brick and mortar casinos spoke out vocally against them. They were in favor of legislation to ban the online casinos because they did not want anything cutting into their profits. With the casino industry suffering from declining revenues during the current economic slowdown, some of the casino corporations are eyeing online gambling as a way increase their sagging profits.
Harrah’s Entertainment and MGM Mirage, the two largest gaming companies now support legalizing online gambling. Harrah’s has been the most vocal supporter of Internet gambling in recent months, and they also stand to benefit the most from legalization. Last month, Harrah’s launched a subsidiary in Montreal, Canada to capitalize on the spread of Internet gambling in countries where online gambling is legal.
Both Harrah’s and MGM feel that more people would gamble online if it was regulated and run by companies that know and trust.

Colorado Casinos Raising the Limits
March 11, 2010
When casinos opened in Colorado in 1991, the only games offered were slot machines, blackjack and poker. Gamblers were limited to making a maximum bet of five dollars on the blackjack and poker games. Under State regulation, casinos had to close between 2:00am and 8:00am.
Last November, voters approved Amendment 50 which raises the maximum bet from $5 to $100 and allows the casinos to offer craps and roulette. It also extends operating hours to 24 hours a day.
The higher limits and new games will go into effect at exactly 12 a.m. on Thursday, July 2nd and the casinos are looking forward to a very busy holiday weekend to celebrate their new independence from the old regulations.

How to Win at Online Poker
March 11, 2010
Playing poker online is fast becoming a way for many to enjoy the sport of poker without all the hassles of traveling to another state or getting out in all kinds of weather to find a casino. Many states in the US do not even have one casino with any type of table games, thus many individuals cannot just drive down the street to play a hand. They must go on vacation to find a casino, thus the main reason online poker is so popular. However, do people real win at online casinos? The answer is yes, but you must know how to play in the virtual world in order to win.
Online poker is pretty much the same as in a casino. You can play in a virtual world today and even in a 3D world, making the game even more enjoyable. The 3D games are practically like being there only without all the noise that you found at casinos.
To win at online poker games, you still play just about, like you would in a casino. You should start out by playing your highest hand at the beginning of the poker game. You should also remember the old saying, “know when to hold ‘em and know when to fold”. If you think, you have a bad hand, fold. This way you will not lose as much, because no one wins every time. Online, you can watch the player’s faces and learn if they are bluffing, it is better to fold than lose a huge amount of money.
As you enter a poker room, observe before joining in. What are the stacks? If they are higher than you wish to lose, then leave. You can find a room where the stacks are not as high and you can enjoy winning.
If you are losing, lower your bet. You do not always have to bet the max. This will also help you win while minimizing your losses.
Even though, you are playing online, try to get to know the other players. Learn how they bet, their strategies, etc…, by watching the game prior to joining in if possible. You must still learn how to outsmart the other poker players in the room if you wish to win.
Not only must you learn about the other players, but you must also learn how to bet. Betting defensively is the best option. Learn how to bluff your opponents. This is a great way to win at any poker game. Your bluffs may not work on the hardcore players, but new poker players will fall into your trap.
