PKR will leave the regulated italian market with immediate effect. So players can't play there any more, but can withdraw their funds. Tracking sites showed only a very low number of cash players for this room, so the move comes as no surprise.

If the tracking sites are right, they had a max of 12 cash players. At peak times! That is as bad as Duck p0ker. No way a room can survive for long with such a tiny player base. The divisions, caused by the closed and regulated markets, will surely find other victims.

12 players only? Were they losing by being open to players from Italy? If not i dont see the reason for that move. So if magatt is one of them there were still 11 more playing at PKR? Is that right magatt?

I never played on PKR.it, never opened an account there.
I was to busy in posing for paparazzi on the beach

Of cause they had a larger player pool than just 12 players. But a maximum of a dozend cash game players indicates, that they can't make a lot of rake there. So i'm not surprised, that they called it a day.

If they are not losing money from just being open in the specific market i dont see the reason why moving out. But failing to draw magatt into playing there, was the final hit for them There goes the 3d poker for italians..... lol
