The government believed that it was a vital issue to protect the Australian citizens not to indulge into gambling as a habit and thus protect their and their family’s interest against the same.
Under IGA rules and regulations, the players or the customers of the gambling service providers are not influenced by their rules but the same is true for these service providers. According to the IGA, any Australian resident can play online gambling games like online poker or online bingo or pokies online but they can not play games being physically a part of any of the casinos.
Even in case of sports betting, the same is totally legitimate in Australia but only online as against the rules and regulations that regulate the American players, where it is banned. There are sports books that are licensed in Australia like Betfair, Centre bet etc.
The banning of casinos is concerned only to land based gambling service providers who can be Australian in origin or foreign, may be situated in the mainland or offshore.
