Do you think it's legal for you to play on any poker website using a VPN? VPN helps to mask your real location and IP address which can be used to bypass poker websites their services isn't available in your location.

Have you ever tried playing on a poker site using a VPN? What will be the consequences if your account is found out?
 
Some site I would think have banned this.
 
Yeah some sites ban vpn and multiple accounts get banned
 
Only if the sites want to ban duplicate account making or those avoiding bans by using a vpn.
 
I don't play with VPN. I don't know how safe it is doing so on some sites as well.
 
I think it’s not safe for personal information I don’t like it and it’s like your sharing a IP with millions of people
I don’t agree with them

You made a valid point here. I wouldn't be comfortable as well with that kind of situation as well. I play without vpn for my safety.
 
I believe most sites have banned the use of a VPN. This is understandable as I can imagine there are many ways to cause issues using a VPN.
 
Yeah bad things you can do with them
