I've tried to find some info on this but everything I can find seems to be dated.

I'm considering moving to South Korea at the end of this year and would like to play on pokerstars if possible while I'm there. Is anyone currently living and playing in South Korea? How are deposits/withdrawals, specifically with Pokerstars?

Thanks for any info.

I guess the only way they could stop you is if they blocked your ip address from pokerstars, I think the best bet would be to ask poker stars customer service, they have excellent customer service.

It is my understanding that south korea made casino gambling legal in 2000 but i'm pretty sure they meant the brick n motar one which id o believe theres roughly 20-25 of them.

I also think there are some playing in that country though whether it is legal or not kinda resembles those of us in the usa.

good luck to all and happy gaming!
