The current state of some European attitudes and policies to online gaming, such as online bingo and the offering of free online bingo halls, is still stuck in the dark ages. This is the inference when you hear what Austrian online gaming company Bwin has to say about its recent move to sponsor Spanish football giants Real Madrid. I quote:

“In the future, Bwin will therefore be investing its available sponsoring resources in markets that have adopted an enlightened attitude to the subject of gaming regulation,”

An ‘enlightened’ attitude, please note.

European countries that continue to block the inevitable will only continue to lose out. The UK’s regulated approach to online gaming has seen the online bingo industry in this country grow in both diversity and quality, something government-controlled institutions are notorious at not doing. In the end, it’s their loss and Real Madrid’s gain.
