Company officials were pleased with the first week of action and outlined some of the action for USPoker<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlayers took to the felt in droves with an outpouring of love for the game and excitement at its return,\u201d a PokerStars spokesman said.<\/p>\n

        PokerStars PA Sunday majors and tournament scores<\/span><\/h2>\n

        As part of the site\u2019s launch celebration, PokerStars added some big prizes for its first Pennsylvania Sunday majors<\/b>. A look at the entry numbers and payouts offer a glimpse into what PA poker players may be in store for.<\/p>\n

        The first ever $100 Sunday Special<\/b> attracted 472 entries and was won by \u201cCatfur77\u201d for $7,712<\/b>.<\/p>\n

        A player named \u201cNeolithicFarmer\u201d had a particularly nice day. Farmer took down the $250 Sunday High Roller<\/b> for $4,902.<\/p>\n

        This Pennsylvania rounder followed that up less than two hours later by shipping the $100 Nightly Stars<\/b> for $2,375.<\/p>\n

        In total, more than $140,000<\/b> was awarded across the Sunday tournament schedule. Many players enjoyed their first Sunday of online poker since Black Friday<\/b>.<\/p>\n

        Numbers from the first week of action at PokerStars PA<\/span><\/h2>\n

        It\u2019s been a rare event to see a new online poker platform launch in the US. But Pennsylvania players were apparently eager to get back to the tables.<\/p>\n

        At one point even on Day 1, the number of players surpassed the number in New Jersey<\/b>. PokerStars PA awarded $12,305 across 12 scheduled tournaments on the first day, despite only being live for eight hours.<\/p>\n

        The first real money hand<\/b> was won by \u201cJeremyBearimy<\/b>,\u201d who scooped a $3.82 pot.<\/p>\n

        After two days of a soft launch on Nov. 4-5, the site became fully functional Wednesday through Sunday. After those five full days of play, more than $450,000<\/b> was awarded in tournaments.<\/p>\n

        For the week, the site dealt more than 15,000 Sit and Go tournaments with $500,000 awarded to players.<\/p>\n

        A few more PA online poker highlights<\/span><\/h2>\n

        With one week in the books, PokerStars and Keystone State<\/b> players hope those numbers continue to rise. The number of concurrent players peaked at around 745<\/b> shortly after 8pm on Day 1.<\/p>\n

        Here are a few more highlights from the first week:<\/p>\n

          \n
        • The $20 Moonlight Express<\/b> was the biggest Day 1 tournament and won by \u201cTallnessBink\u201d for $651.88.<\/li>\n
        • The first $100 Nightly Stars<\/b> was the biggest tournament on the first day of full launch. \u201clove2playpoker\u201d earned $3,248 for the win from a $16,340 prize pool.<\/li>\n
        • Almost 400 Sit and Go<\/b> tournaments also ran on Day 1, ranging in buy-ins of $1 to $100.<\/li>\n
        • Day 2 saw more than 1,000 seats<\/b> filled for much of the night.<\/li>\n
        • The $50 Bounty Builder<\/b> on Day 2 saw the first five-figure prize pool. The event was won by \u201cjb2paint\u201d for $1,331 plus $1,081 in bounties.<\/li>\n
        • In total, the second day of action saw $34,061<\/b> awarded in scheduled tournaments and 1,000 Sit and Go\u2019s run.<\/li>\n
        • The $200 Thursday Thrill<\/b> was taken down by \u201cSchmuckersville\u201d for $1,994 plus $2,261 in bounties.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Looking ahead at US online poker<\/span><\/h2>\n

          Nevada<\/b>, Delaware<\/b>, and New Jersey legalized online poker in 2013. Since that time the markets have stagnated a bit and Pennsylvania now offers some hope for the industry.<\/p>\n

          It becomes the fourth state in this poker club. PokerStars is now the only operator<\/b> in the fifth most populous state, with almost 13 million<\/b> residents.<\/p>\n

          That doesn\u2019t mean more will enter the mix. WSOP.com<\/b> and partypoker<\/b> have both applied for licensure with plans to launch. When that will happen isn\u2019t yet clear.<\/p>\n

          But for players, many are just happy to be back in the action.<\/p>\n
