Recently the Germany state of Schleswig-Holstein, to much fanfare, announced the licensing of three operators in it’s territory, myBet, Betfair and Nordwest Lotto. Three weeks later, operators Bwin, Bet365, BetAtHome and Tipico were also approved with their gaming licenses.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are beginning to clear the minefield in the German gambling legislation left by our predecessors in Schleswig-Holstein.
