Cyprus Maintains Bans Poker (but not sports betting…)

Not too long ago Cyprus banned online poker and other “table” games, including slots.  The plan to implement the ban remains on, though it is being delayed by three months to permit the EU to comment.  Curiously, Cyprus has no plans to ban sport betting.  In fact, the state has come out in favor of maintaining sports betting.  That’s right folks, Cyprus has legal sports betting while the U.S. does not.  What makes this especially interesting is that Cyprus is a COMMUNIST state.  I love irony on Christmas.
