The Success and Challenges to Online Poker 19 Mar 2006 If you like online casino card games, then you are probably a huge fan of online casino poker. Online casino poker is the most popular online casino game around; in fact, entire websites and online casinos gambling sites have been created solely to promote play of online poker around the world. Online poker is so popular, in fact, that poker companies have gone public on the London Stock Exchange, sponsor TV commercials on CNBC Europe, and have banner ads on websites that have absolutely nothing to do with online casino gambling. Many people look at this as an inevitable outcome of the online gambling craze, but in fact what we are seeing is merely the fruits of an ongoing effort begun when the online casino industry was first founded to make poker the preeminent online gambling game around. If supporters of online poker had not been continuously active for many years to help bring online poker to where it stands today in the online casino industry, it might have been popular but by no means was ever assured of being synonymous with online casinos or online gambling. If online poker is to succeed in the coming years, those who love it would be wise not to sit on their laurels. There are plenty of other online casino games out there which would love to unseat online poker for the crown of 'top online gambling game', and those games and the gamers and gamblers who play them are likely to grab any opportunity they can to push their favorite. Online poker deserves a spot at the top now; whether it will in the future only time will tell. | |||
