I think online poker players have not decreased much, it's just that some players have been banned from playing on this site, so of course there are fewer players, but there are not many players who can't play and all the other players still play on this site, I think there will be new promotions and updates in the near future, and after which he will be a poker star again

They're losing customers because of poor management and constantly increasing number of new poker rooms.

I think this is due to the greed of the PS management. They reduce promotional costs every year and think that players will not leave them.

Hi
Everyone noticed this decline at PokerStars. If you compare how PokerStars was, say, 5 years ago and what it has become now, then it is obvious that PokerStars is losing its position, its popularity and its players.

This is correct ! :)
But 20% each monday is still 10 times more than on PS .

But you could accumulate enough points for becoming platinum Whale and mantain your status for life🤷🏼‍♂️
I play small volume on Stars, currently I get 17.5% rakeback on there & I'm sure it'll be 20%+ before the month is out.

Why the outlandish, inaccurate claims?

If it has been decreasing and everything is due to the decisions that its directors have made, I don't think they are thinking about the good of their clients unlike GGPoker which has been increasing the number of online players.

Strangely enough Svenska Spel have seen increasing cash game volume lately, whatever the reason for this might be. But in general you are of course right :)
Are you sure they don't count their now partly common player pool with the ipoker network in those numbers?

I believe pokerstar need to do some changes in order to be the best site again, lots of people are playing in other rooms.

Hi
The number of players is decreasing every year. I remember when I started playing poker, my first poker account was created on PokerStars, it was 2016. Then, in the evenings, the number of online players reached 100-120 thousand, and sometimes even up to 140 thousand on weekends. It was impressive. Now PokerStars is no longer the market leader, unfortunately it has lost its position.

Poker Stars is the ex of this community that decided to go their own way. And now CC members will occasionally throw shade at it. This topic is no different.

Did not know about this shared player pool, but that is probably the reason. Would be pretty weird, if there were now suddenly more than twice as many cash players on Svenska Spel as on 888.com. But at least it means, you can now find some action there, so maybe worth giving a try one day :)

Exactly. PokerStars hosted CC freerolls daily for many years, and now, that these are gone, they are suddenly the worst site ever, and they will soon go bankrupt. A classic case of sour grapes :)

For sure it's on the decline, and I'm actually enjoying playing on there now many of the donks are gone. That being said I'm playing NL25 when on a quick spin up to NL200 for my more serious game. I continuously donk money to MTTs as I still don't rarely have the patience lol.
yes at that stakes PS still works!
But its ruined for people like me who are feeling most comfortable with micro to lowstakes MTTs

they are going for the worse every month , that's for sure , their rakeback now is worse for micro players like me , their freerolls are less . i do not know for sure if players are less now at pokerstars , hopefully this is not true . i read above that this is observed in every almost poker room . maybe things will get better in the future
