Got Poker?

I have a couple of simple free poker sites running, e.g. www.InternetPoker.cc. I'm noticing a lot more traffic to my poker domains this year, obviously a result of the online poker phenomenon that has taken hold on just about every continent on the planet.

Online poker easily trumps online blackjack, roulette and all the other familiar casino games you know about, earning many millions of dollars for the owners of popular online poker sites.

Now that's a lot of people playing poker! The company makes about a million dollars per day by taking a small cut of the winning "pot" from the online poker games they host; 1-2% is all it takes to generate the huge profits they are making.
