Hey guys,

Is gambling legal in the UK. Can players deposit/withdraw to online poker sites using a UK bank account without any problems?

thanks

This question is asked so [too] often. Do some solo research, the answer will smack you in the face.

Completely legal as long as your over 18. The UK has quite a relaxed attitude towards peoples right to gamble, but at the same time it is probably the most well regulated and safest gambling market in the world.

You shouldn't have any problems using UK bank accounts if your a UK citizen.

Best of all, gambling/online poker winnings are tax free.

Jeez, scared the sh*t out of me when I saw a thread about UK Legislation! Pretty darn cool as it is now!
