Poker Stars is a famous worldwide
Poker Stars, which is the most popular poker website today, has now beaten their own record and have established a new worldwide record, for the most hosted online poker tournaments. Last Sunday more than 200000 registered for a Poker Stars online tournament and this has certainly made them a very large online company. People are making this site one of the top poker companies on the internet today, because they trust them and they know they can find the best tournaments there.
Some people actually believe that the number could have been a lot bigger, but the tournament had an exact hour at which it was going to begin. When the time arrived, the players who were registered managed to defeat the past record established by this website. The tournament’s entry fee was only worth one dollar, which is certainly one of the main reasons that this tournament gathered so many online poker players. Even though the tournament had a lot of worldwide record player number, it only lasted three hours and a half. Tournaments that do not last that long is also one of the reasons people love to play poker online and why Poker Stars or other sites like Poker Rakeback are now so popular around the world.
The tournament hosted by Poker Stars suffered a minor technical problem, but the technical team was able to fix the problem in just a few minutes. This tournament did make the Guinness World Records and the site was contacted by people who confirmed that the tournament had actually established a new worldwide record for the most online poker players in a single tournament. This site had established a record in 2009, were almost 150000 players registered for a tournament. This record was finally beaten and many people really believe that 2012 is going to have many tournaments with numbers larger than this.
Poker Stars also celebrated their 10th anniversary a few weeks ago and this record helps the website to establish them as the top poker website ever. Not a single poker website has received as many players for a single online tournament and this is a record that is very hard to break. Now with some of the new regulations being established worldwide, online poker is going to be legal in many parts of the world and the players are probably going to be distributed over different websites. Some believe that if fewer players are on the website, it is easier to win some tournaments and actually make some money.
Some people are playing poker as a business and if you really want to get a pay check from this online activity, you need to choose a website that suits your skills and wallet. If you cannot afford some of the rakes, or defeat some of the players at one poker site, on 2012 you will now be able to choose from many sites like Poker Stars. This is going to make it a more competitive market and many are going to be offering promotions, bonuses and other opportunities that will make some tournaments even better.
