You've all heard the news by now that pokerstars has launched in New Jersey after almost 5 years away from operating in the U.S. https://www.cardschat.com/news/pokerstars-launch-now-official-in-new-jersey-20471
I'm celebrating the great news along with everyone else, and I think it's a wonderful development.
The company also made waves, however, with a more low-key announcement, namely that it would be increasing rake in its shared liquidity market.
I found the coincidence unsettling, and the latter announcement quite disturbing. Thus, I felt the need to pen an op-ed calling for action.
I hope the message gets heard and spread, and that perhaps it might reach the higher ups at Stars, who have the power to take action.
Thanks, my fellow ccers, for taking the time to read it. At the very least, I hope it opens up an interesting, respectful discussion here on the forum.
