While Ya Poker welcomes players from many countries, there are some restrictions on who can play due to legal and regulatory considerations. Players must be of legal gambling age in their jurisdiction, which is typically 18 or 21 years old. Ya Poker operates in compliance with online gambling regulations, which means that players from certain countries or regions where online poker is prohibited may be restricted from accessing the site. The United States is a notable market where Ya Poker does accept players, unlike many other online poker rooms. However, specific state laws may still apply.
