美国米高梅度假村主席和CEOJim Murren对美国线上博彩的立法充满了信心。他说，州内或联邦基础上的线上博彩立法会在2012年正式采用。Murren是在上周五晚CNBC的访谈中说出这个预言的。

　　在上周五晚CNBC的访谈中，米高梅MGM度假村的主席和CEO Jim Murren说，美国会在2012年进行线上博彩的规范和立法。这个MGM的老板在电视频道的"Squawk on The Street"（在街上抗议）单元中讨论了全球博彩产业最近的发展，其中谈到了美国即将到来的规范的前景。关于在美国司法部对电信法案发表新的法律意见后，美国线上扑克规范的前景，主持人询问了Murren的看法。

　　根据司法部的意见，电信法案是UIGEA（非法互联网赌博强制法案）的关键，但是只应用于线上体育博彩。Murren说，这可能使得美国市场走上规范的大流。

　　“这就是说，美国会在2012年通过线上博彩。我们目前还不确定协议的轮廓如何，也不知道它是在联邦的基础上还是州的基础上。“方案就限制在线上扑克的规范上，应该在联邦的基础上最好。因为只有在这个基础上，我们才能实现最佳的规范、打到阻止欺诈、理解博彩和摈弃仍然存在的非法博彩网站的最好效果。”。Murren说他更希望法案会在联邦的基础上采用。

　　“如果联邦政府这方面失败了，州内采用线上博彩的也能创造很大的市场，但是在这个拼凑的基础上，很多东西都没那么清晰了。”

　　MGM老板进一步透露说，他相信许多美国的公司都能从这个上千亿美元的产业中获益，包括MGM。他预言公司会成为这个领域的“非常大的公司。”
