sorry for unRIPing this old thread

but does anyone know what the current environment is for depositing money onto gambling sites in korea?

especially i would be fine with using Skrill, NETELLER or ecoPayz but I dont know how to get money on there?

I used entropay a few years ago (both in hong kong and in korea) to deposit on stars, but don't know if you're able to now. Currently I just play on other sites and deposit/withdraw using bitcoin. It's worth looking into if you're fine with giving your action to smaller sites.

No russia on that list ?
Did Pokerstars pull out of Russia as well ?
I see other countries Like North Korea and Yemen, weren't they banned by pokerstars ?

Russia is at bottom of list. Korea has 2 entries, South is not banned. i imagine some parts of the website havent been updated, but if u click further the banned countries dont have any deposit options available

I see Russia, was looking in alphabetical order :0

Most sites accepting bitcoin should be playable from there. However, the only ones I've personally tried out while working in HK were ACR and Betcoin (and the old sealswithclubs). I've relocated since, and still play on those sites when I can. I've also been dabbling with Natural8 lately cause they accept btc and have a decent mobile app.

I'm a us citizen spending a few months in Korea. Can anyone give me a list of sites I'll be able to play on? I've had my stars setup for a while but looking for other options for low-midstakes cash. I don't really have a lease or banking here so not sure if that will be a problem.
