Is the 4 table limit for cashgames or for everything else like SNG and MTT as well?

Don´t worry Twentythrees!

From the 888 thread in the Internet Poker subforum:
I´d be very surprised if Gauselmann would launch a poker product.
They are more interested in the higher margin markets of sports betting and slots. You can expect increased marketing for xtip (the online sports betting brand of Gauselmann for the German market) in the coming weeks.

Regarding Gauselmann´s involvement in this whole situation


More information on what we can expect starting from
the 1st July of 2021:



(1)
-poker providers can only spread a poker variant if the poker variant
has been approved by the regulator

(2) could imply:
-stake limits ("Höchstgrenzen für die Mindesteinsätze je Hand")
-stack limit ("Höchstbeträge für den Betrag, den ein Spieler an einem Tisch zur Verfügung haben darf" - this one is really weird )
-tournament buy-in limits ("Höchstbeträge für den Betrag, der für die Teilnahme oder die weitere Teilnahme (=rebuys/re-entries) an einem Poker Turnier zu entrichten ist)

(3)
-only humans are allowed to play, bots are not allowed

check your inbox. Maybe we should create a discord for german poker players being ****ed over right now?

yes I will create a group and add everyone contacting me

It doesn't go into much detail, but hard to imagine that they'll make a distinction because they probably just don't know better. For now, I'd assume that it's a hard rule for 4 tbls max accross all legally operating sites.

Dropped you a PM!

Question is if I get money online today will that be counted towards the 1k limit when I try to deposit later this month again?

Presumably not - and if you deposit over €1k I don't see them forcibly making you withdraw back down to €1k. There's no limit to balance, to my knowledge. So as long as you trust the site and it is money you've already earmarked for bankroll, I see no downside depositing it prior to the 15th.

I was watching BBC tv and I forgot. I can't play .de client from the UK, so that's why I got the message

Officially an idiot

I dont like that. I'm old. I like it when things stay the way they are

from the article: https://www.isa-guide.de/isa-law/articles/210553.html

"Der GlüStV 2021 erscheint – wie schon seine Vorgänger – evident unionsrechtswidrig. Die Dienstleistungs- und Niederlassungsfreiheit werden ungerechtfertigt beschränkt. Zur Rechtfertigung werden Argumente, wie der Spielerschutz und die Kanalisierung nur vorgeschoben. In Wahrheit dient der Vertrag fiskalischen Interessen der Entscheidungsträger."

While I agree with most of what is said in that article, we should take it with a grain of salt since the website is clearly run by the gambling industry and has an obvious bias. That doesn't mean that what is said is inherently the wrong interpreation of the law, but we should always keep in mind that several interpreations can exist that have their own merit.

any news about Winamax anyone? I have heard no opinion if they will stay in the market so far.

i think that’s the position GG is taking. They seem to believe that the law is against EU rights anyway and won’t make any changes. well, they don’t care about any regulations anyway so no surprise
