Poker In NJ: While It’s Cold Outside, Online Poker’s On A Heater

Legalized online gaming sees a surge in accounts created.

As reported by the bros over at Online Poker Report, it looks like the talk of slow growth in the legalized New Jersey market didn’t account for just how cold it was going to get outside! During the week of December 30- January 5 over 22k new accounts (not necessarily new users) were created so people could check raise from the comfort of their own space heater.

In fact, the total number of current accounts are in striking distance of 150k and, as reported by our lord and master over at pokerfuse (PRO version), New Jersey even found itself with 500 simultaneous cash game players. Of course, that’s spread over the top 4 networks, but it’s still a good start for the fledgling market.
