Contents May 2025 Neosurf study pinpoints the
payment pains of U.S. bettors Page-38
Following a recent study into the online betting habits and frustrations of U.S. players, Sue Page, CEO Americas at
Nevada Page-140 Nevada wasn’t always the gambling hub it is today. Back in the late 1800s illegal gambling thrived as the state grew as a mining town. Nevada’s conflicted feelings about gaming were finally reconciled when in March 1931 Nevada began its modern era of legalised gambling when the so-called ‘wide open gambling’ bill was passed. Now, the gaming resort industry in Nevada supports more jobs, pays more wages and generates more economic output than any other sector.
