Anyone have a list of all countries in the world that I can play party poker from?

Do you mean legally? I presume anyplace you can get the internet (with the possible exception of China.)

Actually, I've heard that some countries like Thailand force the ISP's to block either access to certain ports used by poker clients or to the sites themselves (most likely the later). I tried to give it a go while I was in Thailand using SSH port forwarding thru a server I own but the hotel that I was at blocked all non-standard ports (i.e. anything not web or email). I probably could have had them open up a port for me but . . . I was on freakin' vacation, man! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

And really, it's not an outlandish idea. In places like Thailand you could probably live pretty well on $2000 - $3000 a month. Serviced apartment, eating out every night, etc. In parts of LA, $2000 is your rent [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

You are not allowed to play Party Poker from either Israel or India, even if you created your account in the US.

Welcome to big city, USA. Look for a single bedroom apartment in a nice place in NYC? 500k.

Hell, I live in bumblefuck, NY (Ithaca) and I pay $1500 a month for rent on a 3-bedroom place

it's probably easier to say where you *can't*!

I can assure you Kuwait is unplayable - i went there for a couple of weeks without gaming of any kind. Luckily i was living with bootlegers, so at least i had illegal booze.

If anyone could answer this question specifically for Japan I would really appreciate it.
