It’s tough out there in the poker economy! PokerStars killed its online rakeback, Chris Ferguson is near the top of the WSOP Player of the Year standings, and I never bought any Ethereum. Meanwhile, this year at the WSOP, I’ve seen more incidents of players berating dealers and other players than ever before—and I haven’t even played a single hand with Phil Hellmuth.
The poker economy needs a continuous supply of new players, new ideas, and new perspectives. The best way to achieve these things is by attracting more players, and more recreational players.
