    Can anyone tell me why players from Australia/ New Zealand are ineligible for entry into the draws for winners in these competitions ? I can't see why only players in the US, Canada, UK, Germany, Japan, Ireland, Netherlands, Norway, and South Korea will be entered into the sweepstakes drawing. We need some credits 'down-under ' too !

    hi,

    two main reasons come to mind:

    1. your country has laws against it.

    2. sponsor put limits on the countries.

    It certainly is not reason one as both countries allow gambling/ gaming both 'skilled' or pure chance. We have sports betting, various sweepstakes run by charities and people like Readers Digest, etc.,etc. I would be puzzled if it was reason number 2 ?
