I am in Sweden and yes probably some legal restrictions. We have some pretty stupid legislation for online poker to be honest. The latest additions include a mandatory weekly deposit limit of 500$, and that all players must select a playing time limit. The latter is no big deal, since you can just select 22-23 hours a day, but the deposit limit is really unpractical for mid or high stakes poker players. Just imagine that someone wants to play the 5.200$ final in PokerStars latest series. Well then that is not possible, unless he plan it 11 weeks ahead or already has money deposited on the site.
At the same time the deposit limit does nothing to protect those, who actually have a gambling problem, since few people can afford to lose 500$ per week from their paycheck, and it is also per site, so people can just move around. The restrictions also mean, that there are no freerolls, rakeback programs or anything else for swedish players. So for instance on PokerStars we get no chests. Not that I miss them much, but its difficult to see, how effectively paying more rake helps me in any way. But I guess, this is just politics at its best
