These campaigns they began to promote their poker platform and also all the other promotions had a result . Their revenue increased for the first half of this year , also their profits . Ofcourse some lockdown worldwide still was in play and contributed somehow to this revenue increase , but ofcourse 888holdings they are doing a great job , they really deserve this reward

The 40% increase in revenue year on year is largely due to the lockdown. A lot of people are forced to sit at home and having a lot of time people either watch TV or play games. So the 888 Holding owes its profits largely to the virus.

This news is not surprising at all. As we have already discussed in other threads, the pandemic caused many people to dedicate themselves to online games and I believe that the numbers will continue to grow even when there is no longer a pandemic. And yes, not only must 888 have raised so much, I can imagine the other big rooms have obtained similar profits.

For sure this growth is from casino and sportsbetting mainly , not from poker , but this actually happens in every bet company , either it's 888 or stars or party , poker plays minimal role in the total betting revenue , I guess casino has the biggest part in the betting market . Anyway that's good for them , more profits , they can reivest some of them to grow more 888 companies (poker , casino , sportsbetting)
