Gambling is not unusual in Irealnd. It has always been present in this or that form for centuries. Every weekend lots of citizens bet on horses or place wagers on their favorite football teams.as for poker and casino games they are not less popular. People play online, as well as in land based casinos.

After a careful study of the gambling market in Ireland, the Irish Gaming and Leisure Association have issued a report which says that new regulated land based casinos and new  online casinos could generate a revenue of over $68 million and provide from 3,000 to 10,000 new jobs that are highly needed due to the growing economic crisis.

Actually, the government ministers and economists have been looking for the way to provide these jobs. And regulation of the online casinos, poker rooms and land based casinos would create these positions so  badly needed by people.
