Another One Bites the Dust – WA and MS Online Poker Bills Dead

A day after the reintroduction of RAWA, a pair of online poker bills are officially dead. Bills in both Mississippi and Washington were introduced earlier this year but neither really had much of a chance of progressing. They now have become the first bills of 2015 to fail at the state level.

The first bill, the Mississippi Lawful Internet Gaming Act of 2015, never had a chance from the onset and its author even stated as much. When Representative Bobby Moak initially filed the bill, he admitted that the odds were long that the bill would pass but he still filed it in order to keep dialogue open on the matter.

The other bill, HB 114 in Washington State, also died a quick death due to overall lack of interest. Washington is the only state that makes playing online poker a felony and few believed that the bill would gain any traction.
