Turkish Online Gambling Laws – is Poker Legal?Online gambling was banned in Turkey in 2007, with stricter fines and blocking of internet domains. As such fewer offshore sites are willing to accept signups from Turkey – for example PartyPoker pulled out of the Turkish market in 2007. Update – PokerStars and Full Tilt withdrew from Turkey Oct 1, 2014, along with 28 other countries. Turkish players are no longer accepted.

Online Poker In Turkey – Do I Need a VPN?
Yes. Online poker from foreign providers is restricted in Turkey, and as such the internet domains and ISPs of many poker rooms are blocked.
If you are unable to download a poker client simply use a cheap VPN service such as StrongVPN or HideMyAss to do so. After install it is no longer necessary to use a VPN although some grinders continue to do so if playing over public wifi, for extra security. Site reps have confirmed on the forums that VPNs are not prohibited, with the exception of VPN use to play online from the US.
