Casino's closed in the Netherlands

[Kowita]

Hello all.
Today, I've heard a rumor going around, saying that alot of the internet casinos there is, have been closed down.
Apparently, the government did this. 
Is there anyone who can tell if this is true? I'm just very curious, as DavidLabowsky is one of my favs and I don't want to lose him :'(

I remember reading something about more and more casinos shutting down in NL but I think it will take quite a while before they all go. Also NL seem to be working on a licence which could be good for the players as that usually takes away the dodgy ones.

Hi Kowita,

i'm not a streamer, but a experienced player, and yeah im from netherlands,

so i can explain a lot since i read all of the news from goverment,

Netherlands Goverment, is really Strict Regarding gambling on internet, they check a lot of casino's online special points are: No Advertising in dutch, no dutch language after logging in, no bonuses specially based on dutch players, and on and on. Even though they in 2013 already put a change in the law for gambling back in 2015 ou're Second room ( dutch for goverment place with goverment people) Signed this because there where enough votes to let it go trough, now in 2017 it's in the first room, where they make all decisions, but for 100% sure it goes trough, but it might take all until the till end of 2017, to have this new law ready, from that moment, online and both landbased casino's can request there licenses, in Netherlands we have Holland Casino the only legal casino, with 14 buildings spreading all over netherlands, it's the only real casino, we also have thousands of '''gambling hall's''  Suchs as ; Jack's Casino's, Fair play Casino's ,Gran Casino ,Flash Casino's, those are called casino's but arent, because they do not hold a licence, they are actually Gambling halls, offering mostly Merkur Slotmachines Such as Magic merror, Extra wild Etc, when u visit Holland casino u'll find, WMS IGT live dealers etc, and also only there they can serve alcoholic drinks that's the biggest difference. and now regarding online casino's don't worry david won't leave!

Currently Casino's for dutch players where closed due too goverment changes are;

Klavercasino.com

Poldercasino.com

Fortuincasino.com

Purely because those provided Dutch Language on there website! btw All of those 3 casino's name are part of L&L Group Limited.

Unibet is also under investigation due to provide dutch language.

But casino's Such as Superlenny,Guts,Energycasino,videoslots wont Affect us at all, since they do not provide Dutch language at all or specific Ads for us!

hope u got enough info from me, if u have more questions just pm me and i'll be happy to answer those!

enjoy u're weekend!
