Just curious. From limited data I've seen, I'm guessing revenue is around $200 Million for FT. I used to think they had to be making an absolute fortune, but having recently seen the Job postings in the latest FTupdate thread, I wonder if they are even making a profit at all.

Yes.

I can confirm that Caldarooni knows.

+1 Caldarooni does know imo

They are rolling in dough. I wish I had a dime for every dime they have.

Check PartyPoker's site under investor relations and you'll find their annual report since they are a public company. From that you can extrapolate what other sites make. I think $200 million in revenue is way too low an estimate for Stars.

about tree fiddy.

they invest our money in financial firms like lehman brothers. you should panic.

Yeah, I had estimated around $500 million per annual for PStars. You can figure it out by the revenues Online poker have received over the years. I dont have the stats on me cause I did it awhile ago when somebody else asked but its like xx Billion Dollars among xxx poker sites. I had calculated somehow the number of tournaments running, the amount of players, the average stake played, and the average amount of time for each tourney running 24 hours, it came to be $580,000,000 profit per year. And that figure lines up with the "$40 Billion dollars in revenues in 2006" among "150" poker sites. So yeah, 1/2 Billion Dollars per year easy. Sick huh. So who wants to go in on a poker room with me

If they didn't rig the games, then it would only be $579,000,000.

Almost a million a day in net profits..
