PokerNews in 2020

Over the past year, PokerNews has worked closely with sites including GGPoker, PokerStars and partypoker to increase growth and drive poker traffic. These strengthened relationships have been pivotal as COVID-19 and regulatory changes have altered normal working practices.

For years, PokerNews has consistently been an industry leader in poker tournament live reporting, and pivoted well to the online live reporting that dominated 2020, including the World Series of Poker and European Poker Tour (EPT) Online.
