I think it only affects German players but I tried to log in today and got the message that they have no access to the lock files for the time being and that I can't log in because of that. I hope, of course, that it's just something that will be solved again in a few hours. I know that German poker players are not allowed to play on 2 poker sites at the same time and that's why there are these lock files, but for me it was the first time I had the experience and wanted to know if someone else couldn't register for the same reason. There were already some restrictions and I was a bit disappointed because I had agreed to everything so that I could play poker in peace and then they don't pay attention to the fact that they let everything run like this so that you can do it too.

I am a german player too but I could log in just 1 minute ago. I have registered my account on pokerstars.eu. I added 888 and logged in there too. Does this message only appear when you try to register to a tournament or cash game?

I am in to, playing from Germany.
And just registered for that $.01 - $60K German special shootout game.
No issue whatsoever.

Try to uninstall, download new version, install new java, restart and reinstall PS.

In the meantime, I've also managed to log in and no the message came as if I was trying to log in. And as far as I've noticed, you can't play for money on 2 poker sites at the same time, but I still have to test that out personally. As far as I know, there should be a message if you try to play 888 and Pokerstars at the same time. But now Goggelheimer says that he is registered on both and now I would like to know if you can also play on both of them at the same time.

why did German players have such a problem you can't play at pokerstars I see a lot of players from your country at pokerstars they play apparently you have a different problem, or as you said you just can't play on 2 sites at the same time, but it's very strange that your country has no other conditions, but I again think it would be stupid for poker sites

So if I've understood it correctly, it's the case that when German players want to register with PokerStars, they go to a page where it says where the affected player is playing everything and if the player is playing somewhere else, then PokerStars refuses to register on their site. But the problem I had this morning appears to be because she had no connection to the site and if I remember correctly that was the Oasis blocking page. I only received this message from PokerStars that it is now being handled this way from 888 I didn't hear anything. But I suppose it won't be any different there. So the problem is if you're unlucky and they don't have a connection to the blocking site then you can't log in to PokerStars. They have now also increased the minimum for deposits, which was 5 euros yesterday and today it is already 10 euros. If it is true that you really can no longer play on 2 sites at the same time, then this also has an influence on the ability to play the Cardschat Freerols on several sites at the same time.

I'm also having problems with that...

My game always hangs up when I go to the Sports tab... when I log in through the browser I find the same problem!

I don't know if we have the same problem...

I thought I was only logging out when I entered Sportas for betting... but apparently the server is logging out on its own.

Would that also be your problem?
I am from Brazil.

Today came the message that Pokerstars will be updated for German players due to the changed regulations in Germany. We now have to switch to a new platform. I was told to reinstall Pokerstars again but still can't access Pokerstars. I don't know what are the reasons why people from Brazil can't bet but maybe it's because of some regulations

And I've just received the next surprise on Pokerstars. It finally worked out that I can sign up again and now I see that there are no CardSchatfreerols. I hope that this is yet to come and that it hasn't yet been added to the new platform due to the change, but I'm afraid that this is the end for German players to participate in the Cardschat Freerols. Or does anyone know more about this?

I think because it is a new platform, no tournament has been added yet

No, Pokerstars said before they will not offer any freerolls for German players anymore due to the new law.

That's now the new reality.

I would like to refresh this page.
I have reinstalled my app from PokerstarsEU to PokerstarsDE. But even with that I have always issue with logic due to OASIS issue connection. If there is a some hint how to avoid this trouble?
