Some of the "bans" seem to be enforced more strictly than others. As you say, there are still a few people playing on WPN from Australia, but I have never seen anyone playing from Germany or France.Sherlock77 said:Israelis players have been banned from playing in WPN rooms since around 2021, but players who signed up before that date can still play.
The same thing happened to Australian players; they too have been banned from playing in WPN rooms since around 2021, but those who signed up before that date can still play.
gambling is prohibited in many countries and yet GG was able to acquire a license in said countries. Example: Israel and Chinadreamer13 said:Gambling is prohibited in Israel.The only gambling activities permitted in Israel are sports betting and lotteries. Both are state-run monopolies.You can play on TigerGaming and BetOnline.
But they are playing on GG. It could very well be that poker isn't considered gambling in IsraelYontox said:Hmm, after some quick googling it looks like any online gambling is illegal in Israel. Sorry![]()
Pretty sure GG Poker does not have a license in those countries. They are just operating offshore and breaking their laws, just like ACR Poker and others do in most US states. Its a little difficult to say, why sites care about laws in some countries but not others, but that is just the way, it is.G0930 said:gambling is prohibited in many countries and yet GG was able to acquire a license in said countries.
