Poker in Egypt
Poker is not yet very popular in Egypt, but it is slowly receiving more exposure as the game is beginning to be more prevalent. Most of the country's 26 casinos offer poker games, making casinos the best place to find poker in Egypt. Large poker events have started emerging in recent years as well. For example, Sharm El Sheikh's Sinai Grand Casino on the Red Sea holds an annual Texas Hold 'Em tournament that offers €7,000 in first-place money. Egyptian poker tournaments draw more and more players every year.

Online Poker in Egypt
Online poker in Egypt is another good way for players to enjoy real-money poker games and poker tournaments. There are actually no truly Egyptian online pokers sites, because the Egyptian government does not offer licenses that would allow companies to run online poker rooms in Egypt. Instead, players use foreign poker websites hosted in other parts of the world. Not many of these foreign poker sites offer Arabic language services, but they are still a good way to play online poker from Egypt.
