Wednesday, Feb 10, 2010 Sportbook Poker to Change Network

The Merge poker network is still relatively small (the major room is Carbon Poker), so this move will have a significant effect on its player volume, whereas Cake Poker stands to lose an equal number of players. The move is by no means disastrous for Cake Poker; however, as the Cake network is much larger than Merge with some 70 other partners already signed up.

Merge Gaming on the other hand, should grow by four or five times its previous volume thanks to the move. Players who are already playing at Sportsbook Poker or PlayersOnly will of course be migrated to the new platform, and the transfer takes place sometime in April. A representative for the company behind these two poker rooms comments:

"Our goal is to provide our players with the best poker experience possible, which is why we decided to make this move. We're confident that our players will enjoy the groundbreaking features, generous loyalty rewards program, and improved overall playability that Merge's poker software provides."
