Operators of online poker in Pennsylvania just recorded their lowest collective monthly revenue since February 2020.

The state of West Virginia last week gained approval to enter the Multi-State Internet Gaming Agreement, a compact among states that will thus soon increase to five of them other than Pennsylvania that allow online poker across state lines.

Michigan’s entrance into that group has reportedly increased the volume of play substantially in that state and New Jersey this year as a result of PokerStars combining its player pools for shared liquidity in those two states, which are currently the largest by far in the MSIGA.
