The online gambling market in the United Kingdom has increased two fold in five years, with more than a million bettors commonly wagering by using the web. According to research administered by the Dept. of Culture, Media and Sport, UK bettors make up around 1/3rd of the Old World’s estimated total of three point three million net bettors.

The average cash figure wagered by each punter is approximated at £1,000, with the European business now valued at three point five billion pounds annually.

Among the seventy net gambling casinos in the United Kingdom, none are gambling sites advertising casino card games like poker and blackjack. A majority of the globe’s 2,000 internet gambling sites are located in locations with dubious net casino codes. Antigua and Costa Rica account for more than 1,000 sites between them.

The Gov’t in the United Kingdom is hoping to introduce rules and a tax system to legalize the operating of the online gaming business. With such laws in place, internet wagering activities would be observed and the industry will acquire even bigger heights in the next few years.
