For a country of 16 million I think half of them play online poker.   Dec 09,2011, 02:39 PM   #4 Hobbes PFC Asshole and Commander     Join Date: Sep 2005 Location: getting outrun by blind squirrels Posts: 8,406 Nah, most US players are going to Canada, Costa Rica or Mexico. Why go 1/2 way around the world. __________________ Hobbes Playing micros is like getting a rectal exam from a leper who walks away with 9 fingers.   Dec 09,2011, 02:42 PM   #5 djgolfcan Full PFC Member   Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: Hamilton Posts: 2,084 PFC Tournament Wins     Total Awards: 3 Wasn't there a DANE that won the WSOP a few of years ago, and is now a PokerStars Pro ? That may explain the surge of players from that part of the world.   Dec 09,2011, 02:43 PM   #6 Big_tee19 Junior Member   Join Date: Mar 2009 Location: TB Posts: 6 I believe they are still playing from the USA, just registering somehow from the Netherlands.   Dec 09,2011, 02:45 PM   #7 Hobbes PFC Asshole and Commander     Join Date: Sep 2005 Location: getting outrun by blind squirrels Posts: 8,406 Quote: Originally Posted by Big_tee19 I believe they are still playing from the USA, just registering somehow from the Netherlands. I doubt it. The hoops you have to go through for a US player to get their account reinstated is not easy. Not worth it for micro players and the big players would not jeopardize their accounts. PS also monitors for VPN and proxy access. __________________ Hobbes Playing micros is like getting a rectal exam from a leper who walks away with 9 fingers.   Dec 09,2011, 02:53 PM   #8 GTA Poker #bonking     Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: South Bay, California Posts: 5,938 Friends-joey (heidi) - YouTube Cerberus likes this. __________________ That level 5 trap really paid off...ship him the cookies.   Dec 09,2011, 03:19 PM   #9 compuease Super Moderator     Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: Milton, poker capital of the world.. after Wloo that is.

It was nearly empty. The only people who really play a lot are the dutch-asian immigrants. Native dutch are not really gamblers.   « Sometimes the poker gods are just on your side. | Your start to poker » Thread Tools Show Printable Version Email this Page
