WPN Player Traffic Up 58% Since Jan. 1

U.S. online poker players who play at unregulated sites have taken a shine to the Winning Poker Network (WPN) in 2015, as player traffic has skyrocketed 58% since the new year arrived.

Cash game action at WPN sat at 300 in a seven-day average at the turn of the year, and has now jumped to 475 players, PokerScout.com reported. Led by top skin Americas Cardroom and another player favorite, Black Chip Poker, WPN has moved into a third place tie with the Chico Poker Network in the unregulated U.S. online poker market.

This year’s success follows massive growth in 2014 at Americas Cardroom, according to a recent press release.

“Month over month, our traffic increased dramatically in 2014, even during months when online poker tends to take a backseat to live poker,” said Michael Harris, an Americas Cardroom representative.
