Poker in Bolivia
Poker is hard to come by in Bolivia. It is not very popular, but even if it was, there are not many places to play it. The gambling industry in Bolivia just opened up a few years ago – prior to 2002, most gambling in the country was illegal. Today, casinos are starting to be built, but they are few in number. The largest casino chain in Bolivia is Bingo Bahiti, but this 'casino' only offers gambling machines and bingo games – they have no tables at all. A few small casinos here and there might offer poker games, but legal real-money poker in Bolivia is not very common.

Online Poker in Bolivia
Instead, players who want to play online poker in Bolivia just use internet poker rooms. There are no Bolivian hosted internet poker sites, but there are plenty of foreign websites offering poker games online that accept players from Bolivia. These foreign sites are hosted in countries where the Bolivian government has no jurisdiction, so there is little they can do to keep players from using them. Because of the lack of table poker games in Bolivia, online poker sites are the best option.
