English Punters Make Up a Third of All European Web Gamblers

The internet wagering industry in the UK has doubled in 5 years, with in excess of a million bettors regularly gambling by using the web. According to research executed by the Department of Culture, Media and Sport, UK bettors make up approx. one-third of the Old World’s estimated total of three point three million net bettors.

The average amount wagered by every bettor is estimated at £1,000, with the European industry now valued at £3 500 000 000 annually.

Among the seventy net gambling sites in the United Kingdom, none are gambling websites promoting casino card games such as poker and black jack. A better part of the globe’s 2,000 internet gambling casinos are stationed in places with dubious online betting standards. Antigua and Costa Rica are responsible for for more than 1,000 casinos between them.

The Gov’t in the UK is hoping to introduce regulations and a tax system to streamline the working of the net gambling industry. With such regulatory framework in place, internet gaming activities would be monitored and the business will achieve even bigger heights in the near future.
