Gambling activities have been gaining momentum in Singapore for the last few years. The republic has established a licensing framework and manage to secure two well-known casinos in the country. The mega-resort casinos namely, the Marina Bay Sands, and Resorts World Sentosa not only offers gambling activities, but also consisted other tourism facilities for leisure such as shopping, food and theatres. The casinos provided a large range of games which included the slots, baccarat, blackjack, roulette and casino-style poker games. Admissions for foreigners above the age of 21 years old are fee. However, as the country claims that the opening of these casinos are to boost its economy in terms of tourism, and not to impose gambling addiction among its people, a daily entrance of SGD100 is required for Singaporeans and Permanent Residents who wish to gain access to the casino.

Apart from the newly built casinos, Singapore offer a huge variety of sports betting options on international and local football or soccer games as well as Formula One Grand Prix besides lottery and number betting. The state operated sportsbook - SingaporePools.com, is the only legal company which offers gambling activities to the people of Singapore. Betting can be placed though telephone calls, internet, or simply by mobile sports betting application which makes it so much simple and convenient to place a bet. There are also many branches available at various home estates. However the sports betting odds offered are much lower than online bookies which give excuse to punter to go for illegal betting either the local underground bookies or online underground bookies.

In a recent news report, Singapore has been named the match-fixing hub in Asia. The match fixing scandal in Italy are also being linked to a football betting syndicate in Singapore who has allegedly bribed Italian football players to a fixed score line.

In Singapore, there is no legal online casino. Therefore, Singaporeans make use of the internet services which is widely available in the country and very efficient to place their bets at underground and foreign-based licensed online casinos, sportsbooks, poker rooms and bingo halls which are considered as illegal and could face jail term.

A substantial amount of Singaporeans, who enjoy poker tournament or table poker games like Texas Hold’ Em can now enjoy the game at MarinaBaySands Casino but tens of thousands of Singaporeans play online poker against world-renowned pros at all major foreign-based internet poker-rooms daily.
