Internet gaming sparks controversy from corporate board rooms to
legislative hallways. Unlike traditional casinos, the Internet
permits people to engage in gaming activities from virtually
anywhere over computers and mobile devices. Governments and policy
makers looking at this activity struggle with such questions as
whether regulation can assure that Internet gaming can be
restricted to adults, the games offered are fair and honest, and
players will be paid if they win. This book is a timely collection
of eleven chapters discussing key considerations and model
approaches to internet gaming regulation and outlining the
important questions and emerging answers to regulating gaming
activity outside of land-based casinos. Some of the regulatory
insights are taken from lessons learned in the land-based casino
industry and others from the relatively newer experiences of
international internet gaming providers. Contributors are among the
world's leading experts on Internet gaming. They focus on
structural concerns including record-keeping, managing different
taxing regimes, maintaining effective controls, protecting customer
funds, and preventing money laundering, as well as on policy
concerns ensuring responsible play, the detection of fraud,
reliable age verification, and the enforcement of gaming laws and
norms across jurisdictions. Internet gaming is an emerging field,
especially in the U.S., and the contributors to this book provide
regulatory examples and lessons that will be helpful to lawyers,
policy makers, gaming operators and others interested in this
burgeoning industry. Chapters include: 1 Licensing by Anthony Cabot
