Poker – Far and Wide

stored in: General

We know just how popular poker is in the Scandinavian countries, with some of their players taking top honours in big poker tournaments and the WSOP.  It is interesting to see how poker has spread to other countries in Europe, with the European Poker Tour now including Kiev, Prague and Warsaw.

The smaller Baltic countries are also getting in on the act.  PokerStars has obviously recognised the growth in the online player base and in the demographics of their European players, because they are now sponsoring a big poker tournament in Estonia.  In fact the national Estonian basketball team is sponsored by PokerStars.

When you play poker online look at where the players are from, or ask them and you will be surprised to see all the places where the players live.  Need an atlas just to find where they are.
