If the poker league is being run illegally, not only are they free to freeze it, they are required to.
- mikro2nd 5y agoIllegally in what jurisdiction? Paypal's? This client's? These details matter.
- kevingadd 5y agoAre they required to steal money that was generated by a crime instead of handing that money over to law enforcement? How does that make sense?
- ryandrake 5y agoIt’s not PayPal’s job to investigate whether a particular game of poker is legal or illegal. That’s why they just ban all transactions peripheral to gambling. If you’re going to use PayPal for poker night, just don’t mention that word anywhere in your use of the application. A lot of PayPal’s complex enforcement algorithms seem to be merely word matches. Someone I know as a joke said “Kim Jong Un” in the message when he paid for his half of dinner and got his account insta-locked for weeks just like that.
