Interestingly, Mexico boasts a more progressive online gambling industry than its neighbours to the north. Its government sanctioned two Mexican online casinos in 2002, although they are not open to the country's citizens. However, Mexican online gambling fans are free to gamble at offshore online casinos.

Gambling In Mexico
Mainstream gambling in Mexico is a fairly recent endeavour. That is to say it was only embraced by the country's government at the beginning of the 20th century. However, it suffered a setback in 1935 when reformist Mexican president Lazaro Cardenas came to power and banned gambling. By 1946, gambling in Mexican was all but dead.
The good news is that in the past few years Mexico has yet again embraced gambling, and its citizens are now able to enjoy casino, bingo and poker games, as well as partake in sports betting. In fact, plans are afoot that could see up to 35 land casinos built in Mexico along the U.S. border in the next few years to meet domestic and foreign demand.
