Online gambling, although technically not allowed, but is difficult to enforce and Thai citizens do participate in all kinds of online gambling, especially sports and poker. Some Philippine and UK-based sportsbooks do cater to the Thai punters although they have the issue of account funding to overcome, as it’s not easy to transfer money from Thailand to a betting account.
