Is Global Poker Legal in My State?  Company Launches Massive Ad Campaign

Now entering their third year, online poker site Global Poker is making themselves known through a massive ad campaign that includes a player trapped in what looks like a field of pot. But are they legal?

Global Poker is legal and licensed by the government of Malta.  Poker of course is legal in the United States, though frowned upon in some states. 

Alabama is a perfect example in that no poker room operates from that state.  Sites like Global Poker and Gambling911-endorsed Americas Cardroom are more than happy to fill the void. 

Global Poker entered the U.S. market utilizing its unique sweepstakes model, which is a little too complex to explain here. 

With Global Poker popping up on Facebook pages everywhere through their massive ad spend, it's easy to read reviews since they pop up in the comments section featured within the ad as well as their Facebook page. 101,951 people like the page.
