Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Can I play poker at home?

Playing games of poker in your own home, between friends and on a non-commercial basis, is legal. However:

  • the rest of the participants must be your legitimate guests or friends
  • you cannot invite members of the public to join in
  • you cannot ask people to pay a fee, separate from the stake, to take part.

There is no limit on the stakes and prizes when playing poker at home.
