2007 Record, Most Cash Poker Players

The company best known for tracking internet poker traffic, Pokerscout's results show that PokerStars has overtaken PartyPoker since the introduction of the UIGEA in online poker traffic. In fact, the online poker room has become the first ever online poker room to have 20,000+ cash poker players playing at ring game tables at in one moment. Experts in the field contribute much of the increase to the legalities involved with the UIGEA.

Prior to the UIGEA's passing Party Poker's first place record was nearly 17,000 cash players online at one time. PartyPoker's traffic decline as well as PokerStars climb in popularity can be attributed to PartyPoker's departure from the United States Poker market. Out of ten online poker rooms at the top of PokerScouts traffic list, four are still actively accepting deposits from US Poker players.
