I am trying to grasp the Pokerstars motivation for this surprising move. I guess one motives is getting traffic as high as possible so Winamax stays faaaar behind. A penny from russian nits, 3 pennies from casino games, Stars success formula.
Actually not , Portugal is one of the Countries in Europe with bigger Reg % (you probably dont know , but Pokerstars always said Portugal was a priority in oficcial statements , they know
what rake they made when the market was open)
even though small it has a considerable amount of pro and semi pro players , MTTs , Cash , HU , you will see many of the best players in the last years are from here , many are playing around Europe waiting to get back , ofc a 10 million country cannot compare to the USA with 300 million , im talking about the ratio per player
ATM here you have tons of decent/average players who surely are not going to be a lot profitable to play against even if you are good.
Just sign up and try it out , should take 2-3 months they say.
