LONDON, April 2 (Reuters) – British bookmaker Ladbrokes became to latest European gambling group to launch an assault on the Spanish market on Wednesday, saying it would open 70 shops by the end of the year.

Ladbrokes, which has a joint venture with Spanish casino, bingo and slot machine maker Cirsa, said its first shop will open in Madrid in about two weeks.

Many of Europe’s big gambling firms are gearing up for pushes into Spain and Italy to take advantage of recent relaxation of gambling laws.

UK rival William Hill and its partner Codere also plan to open 70 Spanish outlets by the end of the year. Greece’s Intralot is eyeing 100, while private equity owned Gala Coral has been in talks with potential Spanish partners for the last six months.

According to figures from consultants MECN, the Spanish betting market is expected to grow to 39 billion euros ($58 billion) by 2010, with the sports betting market set to hit 4.5 billion euros.

Some analysts think the big betting firms could have up to 1,000 betting shops and kiosks across Spain over the next 5-8 years.

“The Motion Picture Assn. of America has been closely following the case with tremendous concern, an organization official said, fearing that the copying could be extensively damaging and that — worse — a dangerous precedent could be set for other small countries angry at U.S. trade policy.

“It is not our preferred option to punish the MPAA or others for the U.S. government’s intransigence, but the U.S. has refused to negotiate fairly,” said Mark E. Mendel, who represents Antigua. Goods and materials that would be copied include “virtually everything from pharmaceuticals to music, anything with IP protection that can be duplicated, though we’ll go for softer targets first,” Mendel said…

Another Banker bites The Dust

This week, midwife Sarah L outsmarted the Deal or No Deal banker to open an iconic red box stuffed with over £70,000 in instant cash! Jackpotjoy gave Sarah some time to scream down her house, before getting her on the phone to find out what was going through her head.

“I had always thought I’d choose ‘Deal’ if the chance ever came. It was a £50 offer or the box. When I saw that it had £70,000 inside, I thought ? have I really won that? I told my friend how much I?d won and she thought I was having a laugh!?

Sarah’s win is no joke, and as she started to realise the impact that the amount of cash will have on her, plans are starting to flood in as to some of the things she’ll buy, and the people that’ll be hearing some very good news too.

“It was almost unreal. When it’s online, it doesn’t seem like it’s actually happening. It’s just wonderful! I’ll buy the other half and myself a new car each, and I’ll probably give the rest away to family members. I’m going to share the happiness around!”

“My wife was playing at the time. I was in the other room with the kids. I thought she’d won just £67 when I first checked. She was running around like a lunatic. We’re planning to fix the garden up as it got damaged in the recent storm. I think I’ll get my wife driving lessons and also buy a car. My Sister-In-Law won some cash not just long ago too, so it’s a lucky Leap Year all round!”

“The EU is backing an industry group which says the US is breaking free trade commitments by seeking to prosecute overseas online gambling companies that stopped taking bets from America after prohibition 17 months ago.
