One of the most common Google searches is whether there's a casino in Israel. The short answer: there's no licensed land-based casino. Over the years there were attempts — the Jericho casino that closed, gambling ships that sailed from Eilat, and plans that rose and fell — but today an Israeli looking for a casino travels abroad or plays on international sites unregulated in Israel.

The popular destinations are Cyprus (Limassol), Greece, Bulgaria, Georgia, San Remo in Italy, and Baku. Important reminder: the house edge is the same there too — traveling doesn't change the math.
What does exist in Israel at scale is a poker community — home games, events, and online clubs. We support Israeli players on ClubGG with Hebrew support, and you can start with no money at all: free poker or play vs AI. See also the Israeli community.
