I read that they have a lot of troubles playing poker online in China. Local farewall blocks an accsess because poker is illegall there.
So maybe someone faced this problem? Is it real to bypass blocking? And how to do it?
I'll be gratefull for any piece of information! Pockerstars' support didn't give an informanitoin about that
Can play on pokerstars, don't need a VPN. Most other sites are accessible with or without vpn. Most sites don't accept a vpn though

There are several pokerclubs in Guangzhou. Not as many as before. Gala got busted by the police in 2015 or early 2016.

Looking to mostly bet NFL.
Just use some oversea site. The Chinese underground bookmakers give crappy odds. You can always bet through the official government app for sportsbetting though.

Does anyone know the dynamics of online poker vs live physical rooms? I'd love to hear your perspective on where Chinese players and fish play poker? In terms of online poker clients, which can I use without a vpn vs with a vpn? Do Chinese players know the pokerstars brand or how is it viewed?
The players who play poker, are aware of pokerstars. There is a live pokerscene, not as big as 1-2 years ago. Government is paying more attention to this then before.
