7.2.2007 - Launch of New Poker Rooms Shows Internet Gambling Industry Still Booming

   The launch of two high-profile online gambling sites over the few weeks has provided further evidence that the online gambling industry, far from crumbling in the wake of the UIGEA, is still as strong as ever.    (PRWEB) February 7, 2007 -- The launch of two high-profile online gambling sites over the few weeks has provided further evidence that the online gambling industry, far from crumbling in the wake of the UIGEA, is still as strong as ever.  The highest profile launch was that of Playboy Gaming, whose investment in the market shows that even established big-name brands are confident in the future of the industry. As one would expect, Playboy Gaming offers perks such as the chance to win a trip Hugh Heffner's Playboy Mansion or the option to watch Playmate videos at the same time as using the poker room or casino. Visit Playboy Poker and Playboy Casino.  The other big launch has been that of GNUF.com, an online gambling community billed as a mix of MySpace and Vegas. Here punters have access to all the usual casino and poker games but also have the chance to set up their own profile, upload videos or pictures, write a blog, and join in forum debates. Visit GNUF Poker and GNUF Casino .  Meanwhile the pre-existing online poker rooms have been moving from strength to strength since the immediate aftermath of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA) was passed in October 2006. Statistics from WhichPoker.com show that PokerStars, which has remained open to US customers, has become the world's biggest poker room, pulling in nearly 20,000 real-money players at peak times, compared to roughly 10,000 before the UIGEA forced PartyPoker and others from the US market. Full Tilt, Bodog and UltimateBet have also prospered by remaining open to US gamblers.  But it's not just those who stayed in the US who have been doing well. PartyPoker, which saw its player numbers fall by over 50 percent in the immediate aftermath of the UIGEA, has been recovering strongly. Player numbers are up by over 60 percent since October according to WhichPoker.com, with PartyPoker breaking the 10,000 mark regularly over the last few weeks.  All this is good news for the online gambling industry, which looked as if it might struggle in the wake of the UIGEA. The launch of two new gambling/poker sites, along with the booming figures from online poker rooms is emphatic evidence that online gambling is here to stay, with or without the US.
