July online poker statistics from the Italian regulator show that cash game stakes declined 2.9 percent year-on-year at Euro 5.1 million, whilst tournament turnover reached Euro 5.9 million – a 22.9 percent rise over July 2016 figures.

The July statistics bring Italian cash game online poker stakes for the seven months of 2017 to Euro 40.9 million – a 5.3 percent decline compared to the corresponding period in 2016, whilst tournament turnover rose 17.4 percent to Euro 49.1 million in the same period.

Our readers will recall that France, Italy, Spain and Portugal have agreed to introduce shared player pools, which will hopefully increase interest in cash games.
