An executive for an online gambling software developer told Nevada television station KTVN that online poker could be in operation as soon as next spring.
James Costa, the CEO of 3G told the television station that not only is he optimistic about online poker, but also casual and arcade games as well. "What we are looking forward to is two, three, or four years from now at a federal level, you'll be able to start gambling on casual games and arcade games with your friends", Costa said.
Costa also said that even though legal hurdles still need to be cleared, online gambling is still the next big thing in the gambling industry.
