Pennsylvania was expected by many to be able to build on the experience of New Jersey, yet one month after the launch of online slots and casino games not everything has gone as smoothly as some had hoped.
Much to the dismay of poker players, the Pennsylvania iGambling market offers online slots, table games and sports betting, but online poker has yet to debut in the Keystone State.
And while its online gaming brethren have proven to generate more revenue, online poker in other markets around the world serves as platform to cross sell customers into other gaming verticals.
Poker is considered by the PGCB to be “more complicated” than slots and table games and is likely one reason that there is still no online poker in Pennsylvania. In addition, operators may see more opportunity in establishing an online sports betting presence in time for the start of the NFL season.
But the lack of online poker hasn’t been all that has stopped the Pennsylvania online gambling industry from reaching its full potential so far, online casinos are struggling too. However, until online poker is available in the state, the Pennsylvania online gaming market will likely continue to underperform expectations.
