Playpokeronline.com Reveals Options for US Players After Black Friday
PlayPokerOnline.com discusses the options for the US poker players after the major poker rooms stopped accepting the players from USA.
Almost a week after the indictment of 11 executives of online poker rooms, which resulted in many top sites being forced to withdraw services to US players, PlayPokerOnline.com, a comprehensive site offering information on real money poker, has revealed a few viable poker sites accepting players from the country. Poker enthusiasts in the US can access these relatively small yet competent poker sites if they want to continue playing the game.
One such is the Merge Gaming Network which has enjoyed a rise in traffic in the few days following Black Friday. The network offers some of the most popular poker rooms to play poker online for real money - like PlayersOnly Poker and Sportsbook Poker - to players in the US. Through this network, players get to choose from a wide range of unique poker game variants like Badugi and Triple Draw Lowball.
Bodog Poker is another gaming site that has recently experienced an increase in its player base. A spokesperson for PlayPokerOnline.com stated, "Before Black Friday, Bodog Poker had about 700 players a day. But, after the incident, the site has been receiving up to 900 players daily. During peak hours, the traffic at this site is phenomenal at 1,500." Though Bodog has been one of the top sites in the US poker industry, it was being overshadowed by sites like Full Tilt Poker and PokerStars, which were recently banned in the US. The Black Friday incident has provided it with one of the best opportunities to regain its strong patron base.
Another network that continues to accept players from the US is Cake Network. It is well known for being both fair and reliable. The network has been providing a gaming platform for several years. Cake Poker, its first network skin, offers a wide range of online poker and stakes games.
In relation to Black Friday, the spokesperson for PlayPokerOnline.com reflected a sentiment that most have been expressing. "It may seem a little unfair that some sites have suffered a lot, with the US Department of Justice banning them, and others are enjoying an influx of the players the banned sites have lost. However, the sites that were recently banned were the ones that had continued to function after a few other sites like PartyPoker.com were withdrawn in 2006." Many in the industry stated that had sites like Full Tilt Poker and PokerStars not been functional, US authorities may not have paid much attention to the online poker industry.
According to PlayPokerOnline.com, after the Black Friday issue, the online poker industry is once again gaining momentum. Proof of that could be the fact that despite the ban, poker players in the US are still keen on gambling and are rushing to sites that can offer them attractive poker bonus deals with optimal gaming options, and will accept them.
