Late last week, PocketFives brought you an article about the bills regulating online poker in California being shelved for 2014. The reason, according to bill author and State Senator Lou Correa: “Internet poker is an important public policy. We need to make sure it’s done right.”

One of the bills that many hoped would legalize online poker in California has been shelved, making it doubtful that there will be any movement by the state legislature on the issue this year.

As the debate rages on the Golden State about the future of online poker, the powerful California Indian Tribal Alliance has reached consensus on the framework of a bill for the state’s General Assembly to consider.
