Websites which allow users to play poker online and provide playing tips are included on a list alleged to be the ACMA blacklist. The blacklist includes the URLs of at least five poker playing websites currently in operation. Also included is the international betting service Betfair.com.

Betfair CEO Andrew Twaits is outraged. He had this to say to ComputerWorld.com.au:

“We didn’t know [about the ban]. We’ve been licensed to operate in Australia for three years and have never received a complaint or any allegation that Betfair locally or globally is not permitted to be used by Australians

“The global Betfair site is used by Australians every day.”
