PokerStars breaks through the 150,000 barrier
January 3, 2008
The end of the year brought a great new achievement for PokerStars who saw over 150,000 players logging into their poker room for the first time.
The milestone occurred on Sunday 30th December during their regular Sunday Million tournament with players logging in from both Europe (where it was peak time) and the US. The Sunday Million by itself generated 1,800 players while the Sunday Hundred Grand hit its limit of 20,000 players.
This new record for PokerStars proves that the site is still one of the fastest growing online poker rooms. In May 2006, it dealt its five billionth hand in just a little over five years since its launch and just three months earlier Poker Stars was able to announce that it had seen 100,000 people signing in to play poker.
