Recently the well-known Poker Players Alliance that has over a million members condemned Kahnawake, the online casino gambling licensing company, because of Kahnawake unwillingness to work with the Poker Players Alliance in guaranteeing its members and internet poker players that they’re protected.

Ex-senator Alfonse D’Amato, PPA chairman, issued the below mentioned statement in reply to latest cheating scandals concerning online poker.

He said that the Poker Players Alliance is the public and political policy voice of poker gamblers in the US. Their mission focuses on advocacy efforts throughout the country to defend poker players against vague and foolish laws and to introduce licensed and regulated online poker in the United States. The Alliance isn’t a regulatory body just for poker industry or the poker players, and they are not going to be. However, they are forced to speak up when their policy mission is sapped potentially by actions that do harm to online poker.

Trust is a key thing in poker. Unhappily, this base has been tainted by two renowned online poker rooms, Ultimate Bet and Absolute Poker. Some time ago several cheating scandals took place on their sites. The PPA condemns all fraud in poker. Due to the present legal ambiguities and the shortage of state regulation, it’s particularly troubling if cheating takes place in online poker. These scandals have generated an indefensible atmosphere and have denied the right means to scrutinize allegations, control due process and after that apply suitable penalties for the delinquents. PPA urges such companies and the Kahnawake Gaming Commission, their regulating authority, to make a full and see-through accounting of the public trust breaches in order to help blew away clouds that have gathered over the gambling industry.

Alfonse D’Amato said that the latest cheating scandals showed that the USA extremely needs online gambling licensing and regulation for protecting customers. Whilst even the best regulated gambling industries are vulnerable to abuse and fraud, regulation really guarantees that when customers are harmed they do have recourse. Then, it’s clear that gambling regulation can also solve other concerns of the consumers by successfully blocking the ways by children to playing online sites and offering the required services just for problem gamblers.

D’Amato said, “The state government can’t continue abdicating this responsibility to several millions of its people who like playing poker online. The try to enforce an absolute online poker ban is unworkable and flawed, let alone that it intrudes upon the individual freedom of law-abiding grown-ups who wantto play skill game.

To remain consistent with PPA mission, the organization will continue making efforts to convince lawmakers of the regulation benefits to protect customers and to give adults the rights to play poker. The scandals at Ultimate Bet and Absolute Poker won’t and shouldn’t be the demise of a responsible approach of the government to online poker. In its place, it can become the way to understand that regulation is necessary so that American citizens would be protected and card games would have the future in America. regulator for advertisements of the UK, has denied accepting Kahnawake as well as its licenses to advertise in the country.

A lot of the online poker community members continue expressing disgust that the offenders in these "cheating scandals" haven’t been stood trial.

Both Ultimate Bet and Absolute Poker have refunded the affected parties.

The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA), the independent regulator for advertisements of the UK, has denied accepting Kahnawake as well as its licenses to advertise in the country.
