3) Canada
4) Sweden
5) Malta
6) Germany
7) Italy
8) Australia
9) Belgium
10) Bulgaria
11) Czech Republic
12) Denmark
13) Finland
14) Hungary
15) Luxemburg
16) Romania

Now which one of these countries has the best quality of life, free healthcare and the lowest cost of living?

Hungary?
I dont think it will be good.
There is almost no live poker in Hungary.
online poker is a gray zone, it is not regulated, but many poker rooms no longer accept Hungarians, and there will be more and more of them.
If you come from the west, life is a little cheaper, health care is already dying in the private sector, let's not even talk about the state sector!
So I don't see the country's place on such a list.

Many of my poker friends moved to Thailand for half a year when it was winter here. They loved both life and the environment.

Sweden, the Netherlands, or Finland. I would also be ready to consider Canada or the UK as an option. But I don't know anything about the legislation of these countries in the context of gambling. And in general, I would hardly move to another country for the sake of playing poker. If I did, the reasons for moving would definitely be different. For me, poker is just a hobby.

Hungary made the list because of being tax free. Those are all the tax free countries Google listed. There's likely a few Google missed. If one's gonna move somewhere to play poker for a living he should at least be smart enough to choose a place where he doesn't need to pay taxes. Then quality of live and cost of living being very close things to consider. Most us could easily shorten that list to a top 5 which I did on page 1 or 2.

Cheers!!!

From what I have heard from players from North America and the EU.

Most other countries than North America and the EU. Too many site restrictions.
