I have played on Pokerstars (real money) here but my account was set up when I was in Japan. Not sure if that is significant or not.
You can't setup an account from HK since it's illegal.
I use full tilt, It works for real money over there when my account is set up here. But I tried using stars and it said I wasnt allowed. I've got quite a few accounts so I have options just hope they can work there.
Whilst cautioning that using those sites from here is illegal, what you need is a proxy server - most of the sites look at your IP address and refuse you access if it is a HK IP.
Actually I think most of those sites use the country of your registered credit card address. Certainly I can play without problem on PokerStars using my regular HK Nevigator IP address.
I was refused sign up on one gambling site even using a UK card with a UK address. The rejection message was explicit - it stated that my IP address appeared to be in Hong Kong and that this was the reason for my rejection.
So, on what basis do you claim most of them work on IP address? We know the two biggest don't, how many have you tested? Which poker site was it that refused you?
does anybody know if "absolute poker" works over there?
