The Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006 was rammed through Congress by the Republican leadership in the final minutes before the election period recess. According to Sen. Frank R. Lautenberg (D-N.J.), no one on the Senate-House Conference Committee had even seen the final language of the bill. The Act is title VIII of a completely unrelated bill, the Safe Port Act, HR 4954, dealing with port security. It can be found on pages 213 - 244 of the Conference Report: http://www.saveonlinegaming.com/hr49543.pdf (Archive copy). It is based on the Leach and Goodlatte bills, HR 4411 and HR 4777, but there are some important differences.

The following is a detailed analysis of the Act. The section numbers that follow refer to new sections that have been added to title 31 of the U.S. Code:

Federal Internet gambling law ineffective, contradictory

By RICK ALM

In the closing moments before it adjourned for its biennial reckoning with voters, Congress hastily outlawed financial transactions that facilitate Internet gambling.

The Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006 makes criminals of companies — not players — who electronically move money for the purposes of online sports betting: wagering on dog races, poker and other casino-style games.

But Congress issued get-out-of-jail-free cards to those who assist certain intrastate lottery games, interstate horse racing, fantasy sports and even some interstate tribal reservation casino games.

Gambling law expert I. Nelson Rose quickly declared the 27-page bill rife with inconsistencies, conflicting language and even a few lines that he said are simply “indecipherable.”

What a shame!

To: SystemTrader and Zengrifter;

Your posted replies are both sooooo Sad and Pathetic! How can you be judgemental on somebodys work when you admitted that you haven't even read the website nor seen the second phase of the system? I bet SystemTrader's clueless observation was precisely his own sleazy and empty modus operandi of observation when confronted with a system that makes
sense. Are you guys just jealous? inspite of being "experts" you have nothing to show but just being internet blabermouths? Come on, "Get out of your unenlightened boxes! How can you tell something from nothing when both of you are ignoramuses of the strategies? You guys are nothing but bogus laughable and contemptuous dimwit "experts" who are quick to render and claim expertise from something you have no iota of a clue. Just for your information I bought the system and found it viable and working. I pity you guys a bunch of boxed confused masters of glib. I am not surprise
to find both of you doing the same hopelessly bewildered, unaware and ignorant "opinions" in the same website forum 5-10 years from now. "Experts"? What a shame! If you don't know anything about something and can't afford to have it or find it out, then just shut up!
