You can walk into a betting shop and with these FOBT's bet similar amounts to in a casino.

 

Would you be able to open 3 casino's next to each other?

As has been said 3 FOBT's per shop hence the silly amount of shops popping up all over the place.

A friend of mine has been battling to get the machines banned like they are in Ireland or the stakes lowered considerably.

He's been on BBC breakfast the lot.

It is sadly a fact of life that the only businesses prospering these days are Bookies, Quick Loan company's and Pawnbrokers. Broken Britain!
