Increased pokerstars traffic
 

is it me or has the number of people on POKERSTARS increased significantly from a month or so ago with peaks of cash game players of over 15-16K during optimal times as opposed to just 10K people on just over a month ago.... anyone know of any reasons for this?? just seems odd that people have woken up and seen that internet poker is not going away in the US......

new advertisements/WSOP shows?

Maybe partly due to the end of summer in the US and Europe. People play more online when the weather is colder/not as nice.

i think u guys are right must be the espn wsop coverage as well as echecks which certainly has made it much easier for people to deposit but the odd part is that i notice in some of the higher stake games 30/60 and up limit wise there are so many new names and u cant deposit higher stakes type money using echecks since the limits are so low....
