LAS VEGAS – If you are in a state that doesn’t yet offer online blackjack or cannot get to a casino, one of the main ways to get around any restriction is through a VPN.
A VPN is a Virtual Private Network that allows you to hide your true IP address and basically gives you another location, making it seem as if you are browsing from that location rather than where you actually are.
Where this comes into play with legal online blackjack is if you are trying to use a specific online casino that isn’t offered in your home state.
Restrictions Against Using VPNs For Online Blackjack
Online casinos such as Bovada and Ignition state in their terms and conditions that they hold the right to restrict, terminate, and withhold funds from your account should they suspect the use of a VPN to access their platforms.
One of the bigger online blackjack sites, DraftKings, clearly states in their regulations as well that you would need to disable any VPN or proxy before trying to play online blackjack, as you “won’t pass the necessary geolocation checks.”
