Is online poker legal in Russia?

There’s no straightforward legal answer to that. Sports betting is the only game of chance that can be fully legally played online in Russia. However, no person is in any real danger of prosecution who plays some online poker. As we wrote above, even some Russian-specific online poker rooms run on the internet, thanks to poker’s “de facto” legality.

The legal gambling age in Russia is 18.

What are the Best Online Poker Sites in Russia?

Natural8-GGNetwork has its very own Russian skin, GGPokerOK. 888Poker is also available for download and real money play for Russians, as are many other major foreign online poker rooms.

Which Russia online poker sites accept Bitcoin & Cryptocurrencies?

You can deposit with cryptocurrency on PokerKing part of the Winning Poker Network, Tigergaming (Chico Network). Crypto-pokersites like Coinpoker or SwC Poker are also available from Russia.

Which Online Poker Sites are Blacklisted in Russia?

While the Russian government blocking foreign poker sites around 2013 was very common - even the biggest one, PokerStars, was a “victim” of that - luckily, the strictness has eased since. These days, only big foriegn online sportsbooks are blocked, such as Paddypower, Bwin, and William Hill. All of these sites also offer online poker.
