Casinos Back Poker Players Alliance

The PPA has the backing of Nevada Casinos in the fight for legal online poker in the US. Poker sites in the US have come under fire in the last month and the PPA wants to help. Now a recent announcement shows how much support the Poker Players Alliance is getting from land based casinos. The relationship between land based casinos and online poker rooms have always been hot and cold, but it seems that solidarity is the theme in recent weeks. Casinos such as Caesars recognize that if they could help create a legal online poker environment in the US they stand to profit by entering the market themselves.
