Traffic Question

Does anyone know what site has the most traffic for HUSNGs since the US poker fallout?

dont know about husng specifically, but stars still has the most traffic of any poker site by far, full tilt 2nd with a little above 1/2 the traffic

Should be PokerStars followed

Should be PokerStars followed by Full Tilt, as soulouri correctly points out.The rest are tough to compare.For example, Party Poker is quite large, however, due to their prohibitive lower stakes husng rake, the husng action at the lower levels is weaker than it otherwise would be, relative to the traffic of the entire site.  Prior to black friday, Merge looked to be half to a third as populated for husngs at Party, but that was observational (based on looking at the two lobbies at the same time a few times throughout a few week period, hardly scientific or without room for error).I would guess that you can expect Merge husng traffic to be somewhere between one half to equal of Party currently, but would have to check again to be sure.You can make a lot of better than nothing assumptions about the traffic of a lot of these rooms using pokerscout, but they don't track sng/husngs and aren't interested/cannot when I've inquired.

Sorry, I forgot to mention I was looking for the highest HUSNGs traffic site that still accepts US players. My bad......

Merge is probably it. Cake

Merge is probably it.Cake might have some traffic, but they seem to have some issues over there (just read stuff like THIS, it's not conclusive nor is it UB style, but it's enough, combined with some other stories over the years, to keep me off Cake personally unless their games are the only viable ones left, which they are not).Bodog is a casino that has a poker room and operates like one (caps the # of tables you can play, HHs are atrocious for a reason and buyins for husngs are capped at $100, all this is anti competition/anti skill, they just want you to dump money on their sportsbook at the end of the day).So Merge is currently really the best choice.  If you don't have an active account there, we have a free $5 promo going on.  You don't need to deposit or anything, just sign up, you'll get a free $5 and you'll even have the 35% rakeback and 6.5% VIP cash back on that $5.  If you decide to deposit you can add an additional 6-10% effective rakeback with the 200% up to $2,000 deposit bonus.  You can find all the info there on our main page or on our "deal of the month" page.It's pretty slim pickings for US players, Merge appears to be perhaps the last decent place to grind out a living while the politicians figure out who gave them the most money and who deserves what in a prospective poker bill.

Hopefully they just pass a federal bill and give us reasonable poker without all the hassle.
