There is an air of optimism in the world of online gambling as Mitch Garber, former Party Gaming CEO, takes on his commencing work at jobs as director of Internet operations for Harrah’s Entertainment.

Harrah’s is now entering the world of online gambling with a new look and a fresh exist stirred to the online gambling experience. According to the Sunday Times, Harrah’s is looking into possible acquisitions which could completely transfigure the online gambling community. It’s a great model considering region based casinos have taken a dip due to our current economic situation.

Harrah’s management sees the possibility of there being a break in the online gambling legislation and they feel this is the rightful time to be involved. Their optimism stems from the reality that there is now a Democratic president in office who seems to be more flexible with the online gambling industry.

I’m wondering if this is going to be a trend for other land based casinos, since their revenues are so reduced at the moment. This may be a viable option in order for land based casinos to be revived.
