There's been a few changes in US poker traffic recently with reports from Poker Scout showing US facing operations are on the up. In fact a few US facing rooms and networks are on the verge of breaking into the top ten, something we have not seen for quite a while now, with Revolution Gaming actually hitting the number ten spot last week. We have also seen a change in the US leader board with Bodog overtaking Merge Gaming to sit pretty at number two, for the first time in over two years and both sites are reporting around 1000 players a day. This could be down to a few reasons but one of those could very well be the fact that Bodog has massively improved on the speed of its' pay outs, cutting the waiting time right down to under two weeks. Merge has also improved in this area by cutting its time frames down, which is good news for players. Poker traffic across the industry in general has risen according to Poker Scout, and the last few months have seen a steady but a sure improvement. In non US traffic Party Poker saw an increase of around 12%, which is good for the game in general and bodes well for the future.
