Looks like numbers have begun to stabalize a bit for Tilt and Stars though that stablization has been in just the last week so it’s difficult to say if this level holds, is a temporary pause on a continued decline, or a floor from which they’ll bounce off of.
The early Jan numbers from Stars might have been a little inflated due to a rare (for Stars) reload bonus. Players were likely playing a little more than usual trying to burn off their reload.
Tournaments this week were hard to compare week over week due to changeups in guarantee amounts.

Hi, my name is Bill Rini and this is my poker blog. I've been blogging about poker and the poker industry since around 2003-ish. Like most people I started out playing poker as entertainment in home games whenever we wanted to sit around and smoke cigars, drink beer, and eat pizza, and needed a good excuse. I started playing online shortly after the first online card rooms opened and it wasn't long before I was playing 20, 30, or even 40 hours a week or more. One day I received a phone call about a program manager position at Tiltware which was the company that consulted to Full Tilt Poker on software development and marketing. After Tiltware I spent about 2.5 years working at Party Poker where I was the poker room manager.
