The funny thing is that the ban is only for private gambling sites - to protect people from a gambling addiction. But apparently you can't get addicted to gambling on the state-run sportsbook. So if you wanna throw away your life savings on that one, no problem.  |
Typical bullshit again. Following what the US did and guess what, now some sites take US players again, it wouldn't be that they are now earning out of them would it? Nooooooo, course not.
Germany, you're a shambles for following the trend.
