South American countries it's legal to play online poker in?

Theres a big community of grinders in Buenos Aires, might give it a try after Thailand.

Kind of moot, as I'm not currently in a position to entertain doing it.  And I haven't lived elsewhere with or without an ex-pat community, so I don't know how vital/supportive that is. 

I'd love to do a tour of these countries, but I definitely wouldn't be heading for ex-pat-ville.  The quicker and more able I was to become integrated into the local area, the more I imagine I would like it.

3) Peru
4) Chile

The support and help of people who come from the places you do is huge in countries outside of Europe / USA etc.

When I say big community, there's probably only around 50 or so but it's still awesome to have for many reasons and doesn't stop you from emmersing into local society.

3) Peru - unsure believe yes
4) Chile - no idea
5) Argentina - believe yes

Brazil - negative.

First hand knowledge mate, however South America is awesome so meh to the countries without pokers... look up LAPT stops imo.

Horses for courses, but for me, my pre-conceived expectation is that with a solid ex-pat community around me, it would slow down my immersion considerably.

Excellent news thank you everyone.

Nothing being planned yet, mere hopes and dreams at this stage.
