Online Poker in China

It is widely considered that any form of online gambling is ruled out in China due to the application of the Criminal Law of the People’s Republic of China. Although no explicit legislation has been proposed nor issued regarding the regulation of the online poker sector, the general prohibition makes online poker illegal in the country. Thus, as of March 2020, there are no online poker sites in China. However, besides the prohibition on all forms of gambling, many offshore online poker sites offer access to their games for residents of China. As various user statistics indicate, these companies report on having many players from the country, mainly attracted by the generous online poker promotions they provide for their customers.

However, various gambling news portals report that several foreign online poker sites do accept players from this country. These international platforms provide divergent possibilities of online poker for play offering in the same time generous online poker bonuses.
