New York state is trying again to authorize internet gambling, and fully expects to dominate an industry that has been growing by leaps and bounds in New Jersey.
Although its impact on New Jersey’s thriving internet gambling market is likely to be minimal, the move indicates how seriously New York is pushing its own gambling expansion, including the opening of three physical casinos in or near New York City in the next few years that could have a serious impact on Atlantic City.
Earlier this week, New York state Sen. Joseph Addabbo introduced a bill authorizing internet gambling in his state.
