Whilst New York originally vowed its support for online poker<\/strong>, albeit, without any real legal framework, things have turned out rather differently. On Wednesday, the NY Assembly officially ended its session without passing any online poker or sports betting legislation, meaning that the issue has been put on the backburner. <\/p>\n It was likely that the state would have had its own legalized online poker in 2018, drawing from the publication of an online poker bill, which was introduced to the New York State Senate in January<\/strong>. Entitled S 3898<\/a>, the bill was slowly trying to pass through the legal motions in a bid to lay the groundwork for future online poker. <\/p>\n The warning of Gov. Andrew Cuomo, too, has come to pass, with the Governor speaking for the Associated Press that nothing was likely to happen this year with online poker betting, as sports betting was a rather more pressing matter.<\/p>\n
