Loophole Allows North Carolina Slots Players to Play In State

December 28th, 2009

While online gambling has been declared illegal by the United States Government, each of the fifty states is open to interrupt the finer points of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA).

North Carolina has decided to work with the loopholes, slots players!

Internet cafes will be allowed to have online gambling, which will be comprised of slots games and video poker. And a judge has told authorities to leave these internet cafes alone, that it is okay for them to operate on the edge of the points of UIGEA.

So, slots players, if you are in North Carolina or near it, head on over for some almost for fun slots.

Yes, almost for fun. UIGEA and North Carolina State Law does not allow for gambling for cash. Instead slots players in these internet casinos can play for incentives, which can include free computer or phone time at these cafes.

I know, it is not really slots if you cannot win a cash jackpot. But let’s consider this a step in the right direction—at least North Carolina is allowing slots in some form.

But there are always more loopholes. This time it is the internet cafes that found the loophole. While they cannot offer straight up cash prizes, some of the prizes they are offering can be traded for cash or other types of gifts. Basically the first prize that an online slots player will be handed will not be cash, but you will be able to trade your prize. Once it is your prize you may do with it as you see fit—after all, trading something you now own is not gambling.

It seems that, at least in North Carolina, this is how online slots will be unless the Federal government decides to step in and legalize and regulate online gambling, something they might consider once they see how much money can be made from taxing online gambling. They need the revenue and we want the online games.
