Are online slots / casinos legal?

I’ve been having bad insomnia lately… so I’ve been playing games to pass time.

I got bored with some of the computer games I have, so I bought a bunch of casino slot machine games. (I like to play penny and 2cent slots when I go to the casino, which unfortunately isn’t often since the nearest one is pretty far away.)

I don’t like the slot games on the CD… so I thought of playing online slots at online casinos… but is that even legal? My mom said online casinos are illegal except for entertainment purposes. You can’t win actual money.

kind of like at bars. Slots that pay out at bars are illegal in my state. They can have them, they just can’t have them set to pay out winnings.
I don’t have a very addictive personality.

I spent a week in vegas and only played with $50 the whole week. Never went over. When it was gone it was gone and I went to shows instead.

    They are legal yes, but be careful because firstly you probobly wont get any money even if you do win, and secondly because you could get addicted to these things very easily.

    They are not illegal. The law that was made is for the banks, not for persons. This means they cant let you deposit but you can use all access visa gift card for example.

    It depends on where you are.

    HOWEVER, online gambling losses can NOT be paid electronically, (such as with bank accounts or credit cards,) in the united states. I don’t know about collecting winnings though.
