The main reason this bill is important, in my opinion, is because the previous legislation proposed forces the banks to have to police what constitutes "games of skill" occurring on web sites. If the government is going to try to regulate this sort of entertainment, they a) should first define exactly what is and isn't allowed, and b) enforce it themselves.
