California has become one of the first states in the USA to consider online casinos and online poker in particular as a source of money for the state budget. At the moment the majority of the gambling activity in the state is processed through the tribes, and the prospect of losing some business to the internet poker sites seems to be rising much argument and caution.

Actually, some tribes are supporting legalization of online casinos in the state, while others are against. Of course, they are protecting their own assets and are expecting deep analysis to be done by unbiased outsiders to assess the potential of a Californian online casino gambling industry.
