Key Takeaways
- A 1% gain in global cash game traffic has been driven by the middle of the market rather than by the market leaders.
- PokerStars Italy has pushed Full Tilt out of the top five, and Adjarabet has overtaken PokerStars Spain to take its highest ever position of eighth place.
- The French and Italian markets recovered a little, but the Spanish market continued its fall.
- Nevada and New Jersey markets both had a good week gaining cash game traffic as the WSOP main Event got underway.
An uptick of almost 1% in the global market’s cash game traffic made a rare but welcome sight this week.
PokerStars was down a little over 1% and second ranked 888poker down almost 4%—which means that the rest of the market did the heavy lifting to raise the global total.
