PokerStars does not currently allow those from Washington State to play for real money on their website.  Alternatives include Americas Cardroom, available to play for real money in all 50 states.

PokerStars recently stopped offering its free online poker to those living in Washington State, so forget about real money play.

Years ago the state did spook online poker operators after passing a law making it a felony to play, the only state in the U.S. to do so.

While Washington State land-based poker rooms are plentiful, the games do have restrictions.  The maximum single bets are capped at $40, with a limit of three raises up to a total pot value of $500.
