Does living in Ohio exclude you from PokerStar Freeroll?

Ohio player here! Will PokerStars even allow me to play in the Freeroll? If I were to make the money, would they not allow me to collect? Anyone have experience with being in a state that is no longer accepting deposits for PokerStars?

usa people are not allowed to play with real money in pokerstars. the only way you could play is having a second residence outside usa.

Pokerstars real money games is available in the state of New Jersey only right now. It is also limited to player pools in that state only too.

The rest of states you can play "play money" games. You cannot play any real money games and you cannot play any freeroll that awards real money prizes.

While you may not be able to play the Cardschat $100 daily freeroll on Pokerstars Cardschat do run some of their events on homegames. Example: https://www.cardschat.com/forum/car...ardschat-15-year-anniversary-kick-off-436713/

The above event is currently running so you can apply and play it next weekend.

If you happen to make it to the prizes Cardschat will organise it for you outside of Pokerstars. You can see this thread for details on options: https://www.cardschat.com/forum/sug...ts-6/what-do-if-you-win-a-405715/#post4800339
