I think you're both missing the point. Why would you go to the casino, with your laptop, to bet online? That makes less than no sense. They are worried about violation of the Wire Act, which doesn't apply here (Atlantic City) as parimutuel pools are exempt- and if they actually knew the laws they were trying to enforce then there would be no problem. I bring mine to SAVE PAPER, nothing else. It's pointless to print out 500 pages of PP's when you can have them on a computer.
