Default Japan Help

I am studying abroad in Japan and am a online poker player. It is illegal to gamble in Japan. Am I ok or should I stop playing.

Gambling on pachinko is illegal as well but in fact common place if you know how to exchange the prizes won for cash off premises. They probably aren't going to be overly zealous in enforcing laws against online poker playing either unless you incriminate yourself.
