Online Poker Traffic Rises 1.3 Percent

 

With summer vacations ending, online poker traffic has managed to climb 1.3 percent during the final week of August 2010 according to PokerScout.com, which monitors “real cash” traffic.  The site points out, however, that online poker traffic overall is still down 4 percent over last year at this time.  It will be interesting to see what if any effect a massive hurricane forecast to ride along the U.S. East Coast has on playing trends this week.
