The BetOnSports.com affair has revolutionized the industry
As published by Forbes: Aggressive moves by the U.S. to thwart online sports betting within its borders may spark a broad trade dispute with Caribbean and European nations that provide homes to the $12 billion Internet gambling industry.
The World Trade Organization in Geneva is said to be looking into complaints by Antigua and other countries that U.S. laws banning Internet betting violate free-trade rules.
Antigua has been a big foe of the U.S. on the subject of online casinos, but other countries such as Costa Rica could be drawn into the fray.
Costa Rica is home to betonsports.com, an online gaming site that has been severely curtailed by a temporary restraining order approved Monday by a federal court in Dallas.
