GaF Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Don't know a lot about this - just caught half of it on Poker News (ch 843 on Sky) Apparently (if I caught this right) online gaming is illegal in Hungary, unless the govt owns a majority share in the site :unsure. Following increasing levels of credit card fraud coming out of Hungary, banks have decided to comply with Hungarian Law and block gaming transactions ...... Anyone know any more? I suppose Hungarians just switch to something like neteller to get around it - so no effect in practice? Maybe Gizdalord can shed some light on the situation for us.....

6ooner Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Re: Banks ban Hungarians from Online Gaming Sites Will it really make a difference, from what I can see they hang around freerolls and if they do win $1 they slap it on the SO MTT- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
