...in Europe, of course.

Betfair is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with PayPal to allow customers to use PayPal to fund their Betfair account.

PayPal (Europe) Ltd has updated its approach to gaming and Betfair is the first service to be approved under this new policy. As a result, Betfair customers in the EU will be able to make deposits and withdrawals via PayPal. Sending funds via PayPal is quick, simple and secure.

In the US, if you gamble, you go to jail.

The title of this thread makes no sense. Paypal is jumping into gaming transactions, not backing off.

They moved backwards from their current position of forbidding those.

I have only been to jail twice. Once for knifing the shit out of a child molester and for a bar fight.

Never for gambling. Law enforcement has bigger fish to fry than a fucking on line gambler.
