I think that local laws will not apply to online gambling. Well, you play it in your house without the knowledge of a person, other than that you did was play games on the internet, but it might be a problem if you do it crowded, I believe that the law in your place would be valid if it is done together , such as cafes online gambling
gambling is gambling either you play in gather or alone, there is same law for both conditions, in my country gambling and casino are forbidden either you play it physically or alone, if you caught red handed by the police you will be put in prison.
