Gambling in Poland

	Currency : Polish zloty
	Language : German, Alamannic, Austro-Bavarian
	Population : 38 million
	Continent : Europe

In Poland, gambling is not uncommon and is quite widespread as it is not tightly regulated by the government. Casinos exist in the country since the late 80s. However, they were kept low profile until the 90s when they became extremely popular amongst the people in the country. In 1992, some regulatory laws were passed where there is restriction of the number of casinos and gambling machines that can be allocated in a town based on its inheritance. In towns with lesser that 50,000 populations, gambling hall is prohibited. In order to operate a full casino, the town should have at least 250,000 populations.

Most gambling in Poland takes place in casinos as there is no dedicated poker hall. There is a national lottery and three companies that offer sports betting. It can be seen that competition from international companies are not very strong as all form of gambling is taxed, which ranges from 2-45% depending on the nature of the wager.

In addition to that, online gambling in Poland is highly unregulated. At present, there is no Polish internet gambling sites as the government does not issue licenses to these companies. Furthermore, the government has imposed a ban on foreign online gambling sites. However, the ban is rather loose and not strict; hence, the Polish players are able to participate in online gambling regularly.

Until recently, the Polish government has come to the awareness that huge amount of money has been spent on internet gambling. Hence, they are considering offering licenses for operation of such sites. Furthermore, casinos in Poland are also fighting for the rights to offer their services online. Until early 2009, the negotiations are still being carried out.
