    Greetings from Andorra

    As an Australian online gambling (live dealer) enthusiast, the couple of years have been a pretty frustrating. During this time many of the casinos that I enjoyed playing at decided they'd enter the local online sports betting market, which meant getting an Australian sportsbetting license via either application or acquisition of a local operator, which in turn meant they decided to close the door to Australian players (ie, comply with the strict letter of Aus Internet gambling law which they'd ignored for a decade!)

    Enjoyed playing Unibet. Account closed
    Enjoyed playing bet365. Account closed
    Enjoyed playing William Hill. Account closed
    Enjoyed playing Betfred. Account closed
    And so on

    Then Playtech decided to close the doors to Aussies as well for some reason, which made my account at another half dozen casinos redundant as I was only really interested in playing live dealers

    you're still welcome to play our other casino games
    not likely!

    SO, what's a live gaming enthusiast to do when so many doors have been closed?

    Find another house!

    I've moved to Andorra. A tiny country with very big mountains, and very fast internet. The whole place is fibre optic wired!

    Looking forward to getting re-acquainted with some old faces at some of my fave casinos/studios ...with a 100Mbps connection

    Welcome back to the many varied delights of live dealer land LD.


    When you first told me of your possible move to Andorra you never mentioned 100Mbps (grrr).

    It's okay though ... I'm not too jealous, just so long as you don't spend all day chatting to dealers. i.e. hands off my favourites!

    Some news relevant to you LD...

    The legislative committee of Andorra has completed the draft of a bill for online gambling & will permit one land-based casino.

    It is ensivaged the addition of a casino will further boost tourism to Andorra which already has over 10m visitors each year.

    Foreign operators will shortly be asked to submit applications for online gambling licenses.

    Very interesting indeed Fester
    Be great to have a look at that draft bill although limited experience here tells me there will be a version in Catalan, maybe a version in Spanish but no English version.
