Online gambling enthusiasts and online poker players residing in Washington State will no longer incur the risk of being prosecuted for their hobby thanks to the approval of SB 1243 on April 17 2007. Washington State legislators passed Bill 1243 to correct excessive felony charges for online poker or online gambling when done in the privacy of a primary residence for recreation and not for organized profit.
Individuals residing in the State of Washington are therefore allowed to play poker online or place wagers at online betting sites without having to fear prosecution.

The survey used data from about 460 commercial casinos in 11 states.
The casinos employed 366,197 people, up 3.2 percent from a year earlier, and contributed $5.2 billion in gambling taxes to state and local governments, up 5.5 percent from a year earlier, the survey found.
"The industry's performance in 2006 upholds our ongoing legacy of providing good jobs, making significant tax contributions and fostering positive economic environments in the communities where we operate," association president Frank Fahrenkopf Jr. said in a statement.
The survey also found that 36 racetrack casinos in 11 states took in 16 percent more in gambling revenue than the previous year, or $3.6 billion.
The survey did not include the gambling revenues from 372 American Indian casinos in 28 states, 713 card rooms in five states or 11,567 video lottery terminal locations in six states.
The biggest gambling states by commercial casino revenue were Nevada at $12.6 billion, New Jersey at $5.2 billion, Indiana at $2.6 billion, Mississippi at $2.6 billion, Louisiana at $2.6 billion, and Illinois at $1.9 billion.
In the true spirit of the bookmakers worldwide, the online betting website Bodog Sports has released the latest celebrity props, and of course, Michael Moore is right there, holding betting odds along with Eddie Murphy.
Will Michael Moore be arrested for breaking the U.S. trade embargo restricting travel-related transactions in Cuba before the release of his new movie "Sicko"? The odds for yes are only +150 (3/2) and if he does not get arrested by that time -200 (1/2). Pretty bold move by the odds makers, considering the latest developments surrounding Moore's controversial trip to Cuba.
After Moore released a letter from the Treasury Department, warning him of their investigation on his Cuban trip, the film director wrote in a letter to U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson posted at the Daily Kos Web site: "I have broken no laws, and I have nothing to hide."
It seems that the bookmakers also think Moore's investigation will not lead to an arrest soon, considering the betting odds.
Under US embargo on Cuba, citizens of the USA are forbidden to travel to Cuba without prior authorization, and the government claims Moore did not have one.
The popular filmmaker Michael Moore is facing a U.S. government probe and betting odds, as well. Michael Moore is facing a Treasury Department probe for taking Ground Zero workers to Cuba to make a point about how bad the U.S. health care system is for his new film called "Sicko."
