According to PokerSiteScout.com Bodog Poker was the biggest loser of 2008.  That online poker room lost 34 percent of its overall market share.  That company has had a terrible time processing payouts over recent months though there are some signs of a recovery.

AbsolutePoker.com got off relatively scott-free considering the disastrous PR this company has had to overcome during the past year, losing just 30 percent of market share.  Absolute Poker has held its own and is now integrated with UltimateBet as part of the Cereus Network.

The biggest gainers in 2008 were PokerStars (65 percent), Entraction (65 percent) and Cake Poker (52 percent).
