Default Re: Update on the swedish governmental run pokersite

In Finland or not, I think it (gambling) will be taxed if one wins enough (can be considered professional, especially if that's what one up to mostly does); the exceptions rate to be the UK and some other places.

Playing in a governmental run poker site will sure tell them one plays poker and how one does, possibly even if one is not living or whatever in that country.

The 2.5% is a sort of nice (though one may pay less and a government - especially as it has money - taking that much can be considered stealing) but in case of taxes it needs to be worth it - also considering that non-EU places still rate to be taxed - and in my case at the moment, it isn't.

I think one can trust the site to be honest, that's very good, and that it will be a good site, though not sure what they will think about (more automatic) tracking.
