It’s good news for city types and poker players alike after PartyGaming announced massive revenue growth, mostly down to a record number of real money sign-ups and therefore increased yield per player per day in their quarterly results.



This keeps the company’s shareholders happy and also means bigger and better prizes for those players who chose PartyPoker as their hang-out for online play.

In cash terms, the company’s revenue is £342.6 million, up 54% on last year and signs-ups are up 28% to a staggering 14 million. That’s a lot of people playing poker.

At the heart of this growth is the international expansion of online poker.
