Italians Love Their Online Poker

According to a recent report nicely timed to coincide with a vote regarding online gambling by the Italian Parliament, the average Italian spends some 600 euros every year playing online poker. The report was put out by the Consumers Defense and Orientation Association which determined that at the established rate this meant that as a country Italy spends around 350 million euros on online poker each year. Poker has been booming in the country for years, but with the great showing of online sensation Dario Minieri at the last two World Series of Poker events it has grown all the more.
