It\u2019s going to happen and they should compromise where necessary to begin earning revenue that everyone, including the state, needs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0The report also said that to legalise this \u201cmakes sense.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And there is something else,&#8221; he said. &#8220;The California population of nearly 40 million (the nation\u2019s most populous state) has everyone\u2019s attention. This could generate some serious revenue and tax dollars\u2026not like trying it in Nevada with a population that is less than a tenth the size of California\u2019s.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EFFORTS to launch a quick path towards Internet poker could be paved by California and Illinois \u2013 perhaps even New York.
