“GamCare is a registered charity that provides advice and help in addressing the social impact of gambling in the UK. GamCare spokesman Andrew Poole said:
“In achieving GamCare Certification, PokerStars have attained the highest standards in player protection and have demonstrated that they genuinely recognise the need to assist their customers in playing responsibly. We look forward to working with PokerStars in the future and in continuing to share their commitment to responsible gambling.”
PokerStars obtained verification after implementing a number of new initiatives which you may have seen for the first time last week on the online poker room. These include:
Age Verification – assuring that all UK players who play on PokerStars are of legal age.
Self-exclusion Program – this allows players to prevent themselves from
playing should they wish. Players can choose to suspend their play for anything from a 24-hour cool down period to 180+ days.
Deposit Limits – PokerStars, which has well established deposit limits for new players, also allows players to set their own, smaller deposit limits should they prefer. For example, a player can set their weekly deposit limit to $10.”
