Online sports gambling has been illegal ever since legislation has passed on 2006
Tyrod Taylor Jersey , helping to regulate the Internet in a new and unprecedented way. People are still divided on the issue of Internet gambling. In 1961, the Interstate Wire Act prohibited phone-based sports gambling to take place, requiring illegal gamblers to do their business some other way. When the Internet became popular, it was wondered if the Wire Act applied there as well. It was a mystery whether or not the 1961 act related to the Internet, since it didn't exist at the time. Whatever types of gambling the act was meant to prevent weren't made specific in the act itself. Was just sports betting prohibited, or did it apply to every kind of gambling?

Currently there is a large debate going on in relation to gambling on sports. There are people who feel that allowing it to continue, could allow games to become fixed. However, this would be highly difficult since this would require everyone who is involved in the sports to be working toward the same goal. The people who are in favor of allowing gambling on sports say that it is simply another form of entertainment while watching the games. In my own opinion, I feel that gambling on sports is reckless and will eventually cause you financial problems.
