Illegal everywhere.

Use casinos if you want to gamble, much safer.

Further to that, Poipet has very cheap casinos where you can get a free room and meal vouchers for as little as $600 turnover (on commission baccarat too which has a house edge of around 1.25%).

For that turnover in Australia I got free water and had to get it myself most times.

Illegal everywhere.


Not to mention as dangerous are they are daft


Loads of card fraud and even more losses for your wallet.  Frankly, you have to be totally off your trolley to use them.

I think the poker sites are legal in Cambodia and there would be nothing wrong with playing on Pokerstars.

But yes, online casinos are known to cheat. You can’t prove anything either, it’s all coded in the software.


Use real casinos where you can see the cards being dealt from a shoe.


Online casino with a live dealer is ok but check the reputation of the casino. Do they payout without any trouble. Check the reputation using google.

@Mr4D  Hey, do you know anything about online casinos in Australia?

Mr4D

I once played poker on Pokerstars for small money and had a good time, losing maybe $100 per year on the micro stakes. Then the Liberal government banned people playing on Pokerstars. The bastards did nothing about me losing maybe $1000 per night on the pokies at a hotel just around the corner from me. Just another reason for leaving Australia.

Other than that I didn’t play at any other online casinos, except during lockdown I found an overseas casino with live dealers.

I prefer a real casino if I play baccarat or blackjack.

I found a site by the way, maybe you have heard of it, they have reviews of different casinos, seems like a good description , I think I will read it at my leisure. Thank you for the information.

As a note, I still read that hacker forum when I get a free minute. Online gambling sites are a nice target as they hold card details and so on. One database for sale is aimed at blackmail as a few people who should not be gambling are on there.
