    Sorry about this question becaus after 1 year using adsense i should know that :p
    However, if I have a poker site, can I place adsense ads on it?

    Have you checked the Policies page? If you are uncertain about this question, you might do well to see what other things there are that may jeopardize your account.

    If I am not mistaken, you cannot put adsense ads on any gambling sites. but please check their TOS and check it it might not be a good idea to do that.

    I think that is allowed if the site provide information only and visitors can't play poker in your site online.

    Better ask from google support, and ask them to review your site first. It'll be safer.

    Gambling is gambling. Doesn't matter what the content is... self help, tutorials etc, they don't allow it.:)

    It is not allowed. Poker consider as gambling content

    The winning hand goes to adsense tos, because its referring to gambling.

    I have seen many adult and gambling related Adsense ads flash up and so I don't understand why they don't seem to be consistent with the rule.

    Check their TOS page is a sound advice. Everything can be found there.

    I have seen adsense ads on gambling forums before , i would without a doubt check with TOS and have google review your site , and that way you will know for sure right from the horses mouth.

    I've seen adsense running well in gambling tutorial sites. I think if the visitors cannot play google have some flexibility towards these sites.

    Why does Google even bother publishing a TOS?

    "I got banned for no reason"

    "Did you do something against the TOS?"

    "Against the what?"
