Online poker is banned throughout the United States except for four exceptions \u2013 Nevada, New Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania<\/strong>. The Keystone state only recently lifted the ban on online poker<\/a> and is yet to launch its online poker industry. <\/p>\n There are a number of states who have long been debating whether to lift the ban on the online poker industry but there has not been a lot of progress as a number of obstacles keep cropping up.<\/p>\n One of these challenges is that the online gambling industry will increase the number of problem gamblers in the state. That challenge can now be effectively mitigated due to a new piece of self-exclusion technology that will give gamblers better control when it comes to self-exclusion.<\/p>\n GameSecure<\/a> from Bencon Technologies has already gotten the attention of the National Council on Problem Gambling<\/strong> (NCPG) with this innovative software. This new technology will allow problem gamblers to completely exclude themselves from all online gambling sites in an entire region. In the past, problem gamblers had to exclude themselves site-by-site. With GameSecure, this process is made a lot easier.<\/p>\n Bencon Technologies hopes that their new technology will make it easier for problem gamblers to exclude themselves and go on to give online gambling lobbyists more firepower when it comes to pushing for the legalization of online poker<\/a> throughout the country. The NCPG is putting its support behind it and has been calling for a widespread exclusion system for a long time now.<\/p>\n
