Hmmm, I already have ways to spend the free time. Its the professional time I am worried about ;)
Could not resist this one.

Seriously, the first thing I did was search it.
And the internet told me that GG was the first pokersite licensed in NL. That why I was surprised by the GG statement, when I tried to log on.
GG NL does let me in either.

Oh, I didn't know this!

What I have noticed that I can play PokerStars in germany in the EU software but when I am in Belgium, I cannot because they have their own software PokerStars.BE and it has different accounts there. So my EU software simply tells me I cannot play here.

So maybe it's the same for the Netherlands. 🤔

I think the Netherlands are quite restricted when it comes to poker. I think they also are banned from playing on Pokerstars.

I guess you need to find another way to spend your free time.

That's quite bad isn't it?.....the ultimate nanny state.

Actually NL is a pretty relaxed state. Coffee shops for example sell weed to anyone at any time. Okay, in limited quantity.
Guess they enforced a good deal with poker sites before giving permission

Can I use a VPN for GGPoker?


Yes, it's safe to use a VPN to play at PokerStars, 888poker, GGPoker, and other online poker websites.Oct 27, 2022
Is it official or just Google says?

I guess not very official. When I lived in SE Asia I did use VPN and had no issues, but it's always a risk I guess.

God knows how GG have become so big. Yes they have a lot of game choices but : Their software is glitchy and slow. They charge you
$1 for withdrawing, the only site that does. Their customer service is slow and terrible.
I was asked to verify my account last week, did so, a day later I was locked out of my account and had to verify my account again, got an email saying
"congrats, your account is verified and an hour later was asked again. I emailed customer service and amazingly they replied saying some mumbo jumbo I
didn't understand, saying it wouldn't happen again ? Oh yea ?
So I have withdrawn my bankroll and will play my poker in less in vogue site which works.
Goodbye and good riddance GG Poker. You suck.

They asked me to verify my account last week, so I did, a day later they blocked my account and I had to verify my account again, I received an email that said
“Congratulations, your account is verified and an hour later it was asked again. I emailed customer service and surprisingly, they responded by saying some nonsense.
I didn't understand, saying it wouldn't happen again? Oh yes?
So I've withdrawn my bankroll and will play my poker in a less fashionable place that works.
Goodbye and have a good trip GG Poker. You're useless.
Sígreetings, you are right, at least you were able to withdraw the money, I have not been able to verify my account and I have sent more documents than to an embassy, terrible!

That's too bad Col because you're missing out on the one site that is taking over all others.

When I first signed up I got the run-around on the verification process. But once it was resolved it was smooth sailing!

At first I HATED the software (all the dumb extra stuff I wasn't interested in... ie. just deal my fk'n cards face up to me, I don't need to squeeze them... puh-leezz. And why is it asking me if I want to take 'insurance' after the flop? Just deal the freak'n cards... i've got other tables running!)

Once I was able to sort through the 'settings' /features and get it operating more to my liking, I have had ZERO issues with the site & imo it actually runs smoother & better than Pokerstars does today. I have also noticed that pretty much all of the top MTT players (at all buyin levels) have migrated to GGPoker (just take a look at their $10k buyin Super Millions game!). And for the low stakes, micro stakes players, you won't find a site with more 'gambly' type players on them. Of course this has brought all of the good players over too.

I still haven't even actually played that much on GG (mostly because I'm accustomed to playing on different sites at different times of the day and I know the players/player pool/regs. on them quite well, whereas on GG I am still in the dark in that regard).
Numbers of players in tournaments and the size of the prizepools are HUGE vs. Pokerstars these days.

partypoker seems to be dying off :( (tables I normally play on there are just dead this month)... so I WD almost everything I had on there. Where could I move it to? SportsBetting? (idk.. maybe a bit of it), ACR? 888Poker? No... I think GGPoker is where I'll be playing most of my volume now.

Here is a content question. Lucky me earned some 20$ in that Thanks GG daily. Now its posted as cash €, to be used in cash games only. Everything I tried so far does not allow me to use this feature.

Anybody with a hint on where I miss out?

You have to find a skin in the same Network that accepts u. Its as simple as that. I dont know which one and if that even exists sorry.

If you not see ur country listed on GG then u can not register on GG.

Yes, my country is not on the list, but people from my country somehow play and I don’t understand how they play

is the skin another site? the link you entered does not go or is it something else
Its the support email of GG. Write there and ask which skin accepts players from ur country. Its probably pokerok but really i dont know.

Anything else unclear?

This is clearly a GG customer service email. Write there and ask what skin players from your country accept.

Is there anything else you don't understand?
this is a thread for the official website I ask here people who represent this poker room site if you don't have an answer or you don't know the point of answering my question there are people who understand this issue and I find out the question from these people who represent the poker room, you send me to support when there is an official person of theirs who can answer here so why should I ask this question elsewhere before answering the question think Do you have the right to be responsible for what you don't know

you claim that there are no active representatives here, I think you are mistaken if there were none, then they would not create such a branch, you are mistaken
