actully,i've seen this before.they use to have it in alot of other states but places like game stop or other gaming stores made a petition so now only a few selected states have it because of parents think that kids shouldn't be betting on video games.at least that is what i've seen from differnt articles.

Its gambling, and the state has every right to be able to collect tax on it.

It was gonna happen sooner or later.
