Poker in Tanzania
Poker has only recently started gaining recognition in Tanzania. A few years ago, the country's largest cable television provider started offering the All Africa Poker TV channel as part of its regular service – this gave poker huge coverage in the country, and significantly boosted its popularity. Since then, some major poker events have started happening, like Rumble in the Jungle poker tournament with a $150,000 over at the Kilimanjaro Hotel Poker Room. Also, the South African Poker Group has recently been hosting tournaments around Dar es Salaam.

Online Poker in Tanzania
Online poker in Tanzania is another story altogether. While online gambling in Tanzania is legal, the current licensing system in place does not allow the government to provide licenses for online poker sites. Instead, local players interested in playing online poker in Tanzania can simply use foreign internet poker websites. These sites will provide players with a full range of online poker games, as well as real-money poker tournaments too. These sites will be mostly in English, and usually accept only major currencies like US Dollars and Euros.
