Make sure you're legally allowed to play\n\n Party Poker is only legal in New Jersey and Pennsylvania at the moment, although it plans to expand to other states soon. You are allowed to register for an account if you live outside these states, but you are not legally allowed to play unless you are within the state borders.

Several Partypoker players use VPNs to circumvent US restrictions and gain access to the site from banned countries. Using a VPN to access Partypoker, on the other hand, is not always successful. Several VPNs use shared IP addresses, which Partypoker's security procedures readily detect and prohibit.
