Hi everyone, so today I hear south africa aren't allowed to play poker. I know people in Australia weren't allowed to play either. Which other poker sites have they tried? There was no big announcement for us but there was one for australia. Where are we supposed to play now? Can someone inbox me a list? Are we allowed to post it here in public? This is ridiculous that we are no longer allowed to play and i've emailed support and gotten no real explanation.

Thanks for responding, yeah i've tried them. Only top 10 people get paid out of about 600+ people. No other freeroll available. Freeroll club has tournaments but that's 2am in the morning for me.

It's sad when people are forbidden to play poker. I think that in the world there are more dangerous things than card games. And some of them are still allowed.

Since ACR caters to the US market, it is understandable that their tournament schedule will not line up with yours.


Have you tried party poker, 888, ignition, or Interops yet? I would suggest BetOnline/Sportsbook, but they will have the same time differences like ACR.

sorry to hear, you not missing out on anything with ignition. I don't see any reason to register there. intertops freerolls have a low payout.
