Ever get the feeling that theres just not that many people playing poker in usa? Seems every tourney I'm in I see same faces over and over lol.Makes me wonder if the market is healthy. Even different forums have same people. One guy here post same thing in another forum almost every post. I can understand that though. What has hardly been said that hasnt been said before? It just seems to me that the online poker industry is contracting and not growing. I suppose its the sign of the times and this worse than jimmy carter economy. We keep hearing its better but theyve lowered the standard. their better is still bad.

With the USA facing legal issues with online poker sites, and the fact that people get tired of one thing, its no surprise the market is watered down.

Once legality issues are fixed, there will be another boom, however it will never go back to the 04-06 gold rush.

If you are talking about pokerstars or full tilt, U.S. players can't play for real money on those sites and can only play for play money.
