We all knew that Michigan online casino and poker app PokerStars would get a lot more traffic once it integrated with New Jersey’s player pool. But even then, most optimistic predictions said traffic would increase by 50%.
The numbers are in for the first month of interstate play, and they’re massive. Whereas weeknight PokerStars traffic peaked at around 900 users before interstate play, the platform is now seeing more than double that, according to PlayMichigan.
The traffic figures are records for PokerStars Michigan. Additionally, the traffic spike pushes PokerStars even further ahead of its in-state competitors, BetMGM and WSOP.com.
Interstate poker play is a way for poker players in different states to sit down and the same table and play against each other.
