Default What is this big influx of players in stars all of a sudden?

What gives? I check pokersitescout and the peak jumped to 16k in one day and there are currently 13k people playing right now, well over the average peak let alone average itself. Is it the new 10 billionth hand promotion? Or is there a different reason?

Poker Stars is also having one of their rare reload bonus offers.

LOL. even if this were true I wouldn't be too worried because I play No Limit. Theres no way any bot out there is sophisticated enough to beat No Limit. I mean I understand why bots can beat limit, but no limit has too many subtle details about the game that bots simply cannot pick-up.

anyways, i'm trying to chalk up other reasons for such an increase but I guess stars are just running a helluva promotion.

The promotion is a very good incentive to really log the hands. I'm playing double what I normally play.

The jump on Stars is a direct result of the special hands promo... we have seen this before...

This is obviously b/c of all the bots on Full Tilt.
