DAILYMAIL.CO.UK - Dec 13 - Facebook has been accused of creating ‘tomorrow’s generation of problem gamblers’ by rolling out real money casino games. Under a lucrative deal with online gaming company 888, Facebook will offer Las Vegas-style slot machines and games such as roulette and blackjack. Gamers will be able to place up to £500 on bets using a credit or debit card with promises of jackpots worth tens of thousands of pounds. These will only be available in the UK, where gaming laws are more relaxed than in the US. In August, Facebook launched its first ‘real money’ gambling game with Bingo Friendzy, which offers bingo and slot machines. But the deal, done with Gamesys Group, is relatively small compared to 888.
