Online boom is music to the ears of poker sharks

Times Online - Betting

"EVIDENCE mounts that, as far as gambling opportunities are concerned, Britain is rapidly becoming the world’s bordello, apparently with governmental sanction. The figures for online poker gambled on British websites in the past year are astronomical, running into billions. It is the main growth area for the leading bookies. Is this good? Good for bookies’ profits, that’s for sure. And good for the Government’s tax take."
