PO box a good i dea for online poker?

chancelor1 · #1 11-16-2007, 07:37 PM

i live in a state where it is illegal to play poker online (Washington), but i live close to the border of Oregon. Is it a good idea to get a PO box in Oregon and claim that as my address on the poker site?

also if this is a good idea what ways should i deposit? i think i would mostly play micro limits if that helps

thanks

Understand, if they were wasting any time going after players, it would be those they could confiscate the most cash from. I don't think you would qualify for such negative tax revenue attention at micro stakes. Forget about it, make your deposit, and enjoy trying to beat all those micro stakes donks. Just remember the simpliest secret of all. They call way too much. Don't you play that way.

so how do i deposit? My understanding is that the site or my bank will see that i am a Washington resident and deny me.

Man, Washington really banned online poker? I'm in Connecticut and I play. That sucks, I feel for you. However, I don't think it's too big a deal. Simply use epassporte as someone already stated. That's the only thing showing up on your bill, and it's "an electronic visa accepted anywhere a Visa card is."

What you do with it after purchasing it is your own business, so that's safe. If you're receving a check for payment, and you live that close to the Oregon border, perhaps you can simply drive there to cash it, but epassporte should definitely get you online and playing. See you at the tables!
