Gambling America
The online gambling industry in the US has taken a big turn for the bettor - pun intended - and now the gambling options in America are opening up for players online. There are thousands of games now at your disposal and loads of legal, reputable online casinos offering them. Every state in America, with the exception of Utah and Hawaii, offer some type of legalized gambling—from old-school slot machines to sports-betting apps and everything in between. The accessibility to gambling has only amplified with the Internet. Gambling in the United States is legally restricted. In 2008, gambling activities generated gross revenues (the difference between the total amounts wagered minus the funds or 'winnings' returned to the players) of $92.27 billion in the United States.
