As the financial crisis makes more victims in US and worldwide, the main actors in the US gambling industry believe from more to more that the online gambling ban was a mistake. The gamblers remain the same, just now they do not have the chance to play on certified gambling sites, using the resources offered by the black gambling market that was developed after the US law forced the banks and online payment processors to stop their activity on the online gambling market.

Some members of the American Gaming Association think now to support a regulation in the online gambling activity, especially for poker and sports betting.

There are also a very wide spread opinion that the regulation of online gambling will help the US government to collect more tax revenue. Due to the present ban, the US online gambling is helping the black market and the offshore companies.
