Besides wagering on sports and horses, which was deemed a pursuit of skill, all other forms of gaming were strictly forbidden.<\/p>\n<p>Everything changed in 2006 when the European Commission ruled that Italy&#8217;s gambling laws constituted an unlawful restriction of trade. Poker was legalised in 2007, while casino games joined the party a few years later.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/go\/william-hill\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"imageLink\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2020\/09\/williamhill-esb-banner.jpg.webp\" alt=\"eSport Betting at William Hill\" title=\"eSport betting for Italians at Wiliam Hill\" width=\"1024\" height=\"146\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-13204 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/146;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/williamhill-esb-banner.jpg\" alt=\"eSport Betting at William Hill\" title=\"eSport betting for Italians at Wiliam Hill\" width=\"1024\" height=\"146\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-13204\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The biggest changes concerned Italy&#8217;s online gambling legislation.
