Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York
Internet Poker/Gambling in New York State
Is internet poker/gambling illegal in NY? I've read articles proclaiming that internet gambling is illegal in NY, but the state gambling consolidation laws do not explicitly say internet poker/gambling is banned. Does the law (if their even is a law), apply only to internet websites (companies), rather than the everyday player?
Thanks for your help.
