New gambling zones in Russia
The Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a new bill to regulate the activities of casinos in Russia. There are now four special gambling zones in Russia. These are:
Kaliningrad, Russia's exclave on the Baltic Sea, Krasnodar in the south, Altai in southwest Siberia and Primorye in the far east. All of these are very distant regions from Moscow, which means the end to any gambling plans in the capital city.
Kaliningrad however is snuggled between Lithuania and Poland on the Baltic Sea within easy access from any part of Europe. Geographically it has the most to gain from the bill. The other areas are just too distant.

EU may challenge UIGEA
U.S. restrictions on online gambling may be challenged by the European Union, the bloc's top financial regulator said on Tuesday.
"In my view it is probably a restrictive practice and we might take it up in another fora," EU Internal Market Commissioner Charlie McCreevy told the European Parliament.
The United States was protecting its own gambling industry by stopping foreign companies from entering the online betting sector, McCreevy said
