Online Poker Traffic Decline?

The site produced an astonishing annual growth rate of 110%. <a href="http://www.rakerace.com/poker-rooms/pokerstars/">PokerStars</a> was also doing very well with nearly 50% growth.

The only chance of expansion now seems to be the legalization of online poker in the United States. US Congress has accepted Barney Frank's bill that suggests online poker should not be an illegal gambling activity. The next step comes when Jim McDermott's bill concerning online poker's taxation passes the same process, expected in 2011.
