7/29/2001 Casino group looking into expanding into online gaming
Not waiting for the protracted debate about online gaming in the US to be resolved, MGM Mirage, is seriously looking into setting up operations for an online casino on the Isle of Man, along with other possibilities.
The Isle of Man recently legalized online casinos and, according to a Financial Times report, plans to issue three operating licenses this September. The Isle received eleven applications for the three soon to be issued licenses.
If the MGM Mirage bid is successful, the company will be the first major US casino firm to set up an offshore gambling website.
