New Jersey Becomes Third U.S. State to Legalize Online Poker
A two-year will-he-or-won't-he saga ended Tuesday as New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie finally signed into law a bill to license and regulate online poker in the Garden State.
After making the poker community wait until the final day of his 45-day window to sign or veto bills the previous two times the legislation hit his desk, Christie promptly signed only minutes after the New Jersey state legislature approved the changes made by Christie earlier this month in a conditional veto by a vote of 68-5-1 in the assembly and 35-1 in the senate.

HummingBirdI live in Las Vegas and play on a site called Card Player run by Zen Entertainment (free poker room ) they just started a 10% rake from these point games witch if they go for the money games is rather steep in my opinion but if they follow the rule of what ever they have to pay in TAX, will come out of the players pockets ! Also I don't think VEGAS will be to happy to take a back seat to N.J. as the head of online gaming sites & regulation That might stir up a hornets nest ! what ever they come up with is better than what we have now !
