SRIJ Regulated Shares Liquidity with Spain
New to rakeback? Here's what this means for you

You're already paying a small fee (called rake) every hand you play, whether you notice it or not. Signing up through the link below gets a portion of that paid back to you โ€” same games, same odds, just less left on the table. Read the full explainer โ†’

PokerStars.pt is the Portuguese, SRIJ-licensed instance of PokerStars. Unlike most fully ring-fenced national markets, it shares liquidity with Spain, giving it noticeably deeper traffic than a Portugal-only pool would have on its own.

At NL100 and below, traffic is strong and games run soft. Above NL200, tables get thinner โ€” you'll still find a handful of tables a day with decent fish and weak regulars, just not the constant action you'd see at lower stakes.

From My Own Play

I played here last year while I was in Portugal. They share traffic with Spain โ€” if you play NL100 or below, you'll definitely enjoy this site and get plenty of traffic. At NL200 and above, you get a handful of tables a day with decent fish and weak regulars.
