Topic: Do any laws help players in offshore countries? Forum: Card Chat

I was hoping someone else would field this one. Most gaming sites are based out of server farms where they are just one out of hundreds. These server farms are located in countries or indian reservations where gambling is permitted by law and each of the gaming sites must abide by the regulations established by the local authority as if they were in fact brick and mortar entities within their borders. IF cheating or illicit practices can be established and IF that local authority is dilligent in prosecuting such behavior then I suppose in theory legal action can be taken.(Big IFs) The best protection, is not to get involved with questionable sites to begin with. Avoid sites with no discernable licencing authority and sites based in locations with weak or possibly corrupt oversite of the server farms. My favorite licencing authority, as most members here know, is the Khanawake Gaming Commission based on the Kahnawake Mohawk Indian Reservation in Quebec Canada. It is home base for the most well established American owned poker sites and therefore has the most to lose by allowing corrupt gaming sites to continue on their servers.
