I have played here for about 4-5 years and done well for myself. I have played little over the past year and have been trying to get into it more again. Unfortunately, there is just not enough traffic. I can play during peak hours of say 4:30pm and 8pm and will usually have my tables fill up. After this, it is very difficult to get a sit n go.

Does anyone know where the traffic went with this site? Are there alternatives to play? I have played on ACR, but that is also difficult to get a game (at least 6-9 months ago when I last played). Any ideas?

I have heard that quite a lot of people from the US play on BetOnline. Maybe you can give this one a try.

But not sure if there's more or less traffic than ACR or PS

wsop.com is another that I know of.

I know someone from Pennsylvania who might have something to offer, too. :)

Good morning to everyone this morning. @StealTheButton I will answer your question as best as I can (I'm from Pennsylvania). From my experience the traffic between 4:30 - 8 pm you're not wrong about pokerstars lack of traffic, but it does depend on the day and weekends. I think you could pretty much get your tournaments in I don't know when you play on weekends but I think you would have a better shot on the weekends. During the week is another matter as far as traffic on the site goes. Sometimes it is busy, other times it is not - also I don't know what type of tournaments you'll be interested in but the PokerStars sit and goes are almost non-existent and the same with WSOP PA. In my opinion, they do a horrible job in promoting their site and that goes for both sites. I don't know if it's a promotion problem or people are just not interested - just how I see it. Pennsylvania PokerStars seems to have the most traffic between 4:30 and 8:00 overall (a variety of tournaments). But if you're looking for sit n goes, good luck. And that's about it with PA PokerStars and WSOPPA - just very tough to find sit and goes unfortunately. There is also BetMGM Poker PA, if you are interested.

One more thing I would love to know from you is what type of tournaments other than sit and goes do you look to play?
