Its funny how this argument comes up again and again.
Betfair is not just some gambling site. Betfair is the biggest betting exchange there is.
You cant compare it to a regular bookie as the system is totally different.
Most "comparable" betting exchanges only have a small % of the liquidity most markets at betfair have.
But even how Big they are and popular and Best , Yet the problem is that they are banning some countries in which OP is on the list , If He will continue trying to Hide His Location or His IP address so the more he is risking the event.
and besides Even they are one of the biggest yet? there are others that can bring their Bets in reputable Bookies .
To finish the argument of VPN, this wont work, I know that for a fact.
You have to do KYC at Betfair. If your country gets banned and you move a to a new country you have to do KYC again.
I know that because I went through this. I am German national and from 2006-2010 played at betfair from Germany. Then they banned all German residents because of our betting tax bs. So I wasn't able to play anymore.
2016 I moved to Japan and was able to reopen my account but had to prove I am actually living in Japan, so yet another KYC.
Just changing your IP wont do you any good. If they ban the country they ban all the players from that area unless he can prove he moved to a non banned territory.
