In France, they stupidly went for a added fix tax, which is ridiculous, especially when it comes to format such as HU or hyper turbo, not to mention hyper turbo HU ...
This is exactly what PS is to blame for.
They are running their business for years now as the market leader. One should assume that PS knows all about online poker.
Before opening PS.fr they had discussions and negotiations with the french government.
Why did PS not point out, that with that tax the playerbase will bleed out and it is not the way to run a pokersite long term.
Instead PS said amen and lets do it.
And if those stupid french players accept the tax, we can also raise the rake. Let's milk the cow - but far from it guys.
Do not disrescept your customer, we will defend ourselves.
