To the delight of Portuguese online poker players, the country's gaming regulator Regulação Inspeção de Jogos (SRIJ) has stated that it would permit international liquidity for online poker as part of its new gaming regime.
According to Poker Industry Pro, the news broke last week during an online meeting organized by the Portuguese players association ANAon.
This is certainly good and welcomed news for Portuguese online poker players, as back in December 2015 SRIJ Head of Online Gambling Manuela Bandeira announced during a conference organized in Lisbon by Gambling Compliance that the online poker market would be ring-fenced away from international liquidity similar to the models currently operating in France, Italy, and Spain.
