I think this is a really good news both for the poker players that play on the betsafepoker platform but also for the owner of betsafe. I know the majority of players on betsafe are indeed from nordic countries mainly, countries like Denmark, Sweden, Finland or Norway. Since their marketing was focused from 2006 till now on nordic countries it's normal that they also have a lot of members from that area. On the other hand friends that have poker accounts on this platform say that the level of skill found on players is really high and its not that easy to book big profits when compared to sites like the ipoker network for example. I also think this is a good thing for all the players that have an account on the betsafepoker platform.
