hope more can merge this year
Pennsylvania: Front runner. There's a bill (house bill 2078) to help nudge the governor to make it happen; governor can make it happen without this bill, but has chosen not to do so.
Delaware: Waiting on 'BetRivers Poker' to go live. If/when they do, will a merge happen shortly thereafter? Wait and see.
West Virginia: 2025 more likely. Still waiting on a poker site to launch.
Get excited...

People actually wanting this to happen were/are terribly misguided. Merging pools only makes you play against more pros, not recs ya dum dums.

Heavily agree with this. I tried to warn people it wasn't a good thing but it fell on deaf ears. Not that it would have changed anything.

The fish are getting fried much faster when you have 4-5 regs on every table. Even if more new players are joining, I sure can’t tell. The merge has been a big net negative for cash games, at least on Stars.
For MTTs maybe it’s better.

Stars is dead. Just raised take in MI / NJ. WSOP and BetMGM are both larger pools now.
WSOP gets the “huds are cheating” live shitregs and betMGM attracts a lot of Sportsbook / Casino players as well.
