apples and oranges. like i said party can grow, b/c they already got rid of a lot "of certain players" (we should switch to
Those-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named btw) back then. pp also has a limited number of depositors and therefore only a limited number of 'net withdrawal players' can join and will benefit from this anyway.
so long story short ... compare the numbers of ppl 'out of job' after RB changes at the bigger room, with the numbers of 'new jobs available' at the smaller room and you know the real reason, why they "must be pissing themselves for joy".
potential growth (or lack there of) is also the reason, why all this 'rec player model' started with the smaller sites. b/c they had deposits versus withdrawals issues and took care of it. after the smaller rooms the big ones got rid of certain players. PS was simply big enough to keep the status quo the longest, but i think they reached the peak (given the market share AND the global decline). keeping up the old RB model simple makes zero sense for them, since they can't grow any more (imo).
another huge factor is the financial situation (GVC vs AYA) ... so again, apples and oranges.
but let's leave the fruit salad opinions behind, new competition is exactly what the whole industry needs!
