Zimba analysis:
In the hyper-competitive online poker environment and with challenging world-wide economic and legislative environments, it is innovation that will be the industry's salvation. Introducing original features and customer friendly improvements will keep players coming back. I applaud the two largest poker rooms for continuing to push new ideas, even if they are motivated more by the revenue increasing aspects of their new features.
