Gamblingonline may be in cahoots with Cryptologic in some way as they advertise Las Vegas Casino in the most prominent position on their site. Readers should go to the site and draw their own conclusions. Las Vegas Casino looks good, however, given their status as a US based corporation with banking ties to Travelers Insurance, etc. they are perilously exposed to both federal and state scrutiny should any form of the Kyl Bill be signed into law and even if it isn't. Also, the fact they clearly state winnings are kept confidential could pique the curiosity of the IRS which could become a problem for their customers by virtue of the fact they operate here in the United States. As a gamer, the security of a US-based company protecting e-cash deposits sounds great, however, it isn't likely you can have both offshore confidentiality with onshore protections. If it IS possible, I would very much enjoy learning more. Anyone have anything additional to add?
