About time! Having lived in California many years and following the poker fight there, there's so much nonsense and political/special-interest corruption around gambling law in the US. And Cali probably isn't going to get that sports betting anytime soon (unless the big tribes really want it).
The last proposed iPoker law in Cali included a provision that would have paid the horse tracks up to $60 million/year...for doing absolutely nothing...
Still waiting for leaders who care about the social ills of gambling to install effective self-exclusion mechanisms (i.e. Player's Card registry that you have to swipe at each purchase point) for their Lotteries...
