Can someone tell me how to play poker for real money online if I live in Louisiana?

I would appreciate the help. I want to use my ATM mastercard Debit card to deposit. Do I have to use a crypto currency, any suggestions on the most credible ones? Any suggestions on the best poker sites? I will also be using an android to download the App so I can play on my phone.

What kind of stakes will you be playing? If you want to play microstakes cash and tourneys I would recommend america's card room as they have the best selection for US players. If you want to play low to mid stakes cash games I would go with ignition casino.

Some banks won't let you deposit directly onto these sites. Chase worked for me, but now that I am more experienced with the process I use bitcoin.

I found the bitcoin ATM in my area with the best exchange rate and use that to deposit onto my blockchain . info account. I then deposit that money onto the site I want to play on. To withdraw I go from the site to my blockchain account to coinbase . com and directly into my bank account. Never go from coinbase to your site or vise versa. They will ban your account.

Good luck. Direct message me if you have any other questions.

As Bnad said , those are two great options, another trusted one is betonline. I personally play on ACR(Americas Cardroom), but all three options should be good; again depending on your stakes ,etc.

What site did you choose to play on?

I’m curious to know what poker site you chose to play on and how was the experience? I also live in LA and would like to try playing online.

Thanks

I play at WPT and I used my credit card to buy my way into it. When I won money, they sent me a check. No problem.

Yeah id use bitcoin for deposit and withdraw. usually only takes 5 to 15 minutes to depo and less then 24 hours for withdraw.
Did 2 withdraws last year and went very smooth. Altho blockchain i havent been able to link to my bank for transfer to bank so i had to use coinbase for that transfer

I'm curious - what does using bitcoin end up costing you in fees, exchange rate conversion costs, etc?

BetOnline has a very high success rate with deposit by CC/Debit Card. I play on there and really enjoy the SNGs and cash games (micro stakes right now).

you can play on pokerstars and ACR
each of them has conditions for you
some poker sites have restrictions for some countries

I really love betonline, takes credit card or bitcoin. I have no problems!
