This is roughly 43 percent more than the population of New Jersey, which is approximately 9 million. Grove has taken that 43 percent into consideration to provide a potential estimate as to how the online gaming industry in Pennsylvania could perform going forward.<\/p>\n<p>According to the <strong>September 2017 Gaming Revenue Results<\/strong> published by New Jersey, almost $20 million in gross gaming revenue (GGR) have been generated by online poker in the first three quarters and that could hit $25 million by the end of 2017. Grove predicts that if Pennsylvania were to generate revenue based on market size alone, a 43 percent increase in New Jersey\u2019s current run rate will give Pennsylvania an expected GGR of about $36 million. <\/p>\n<p>Grove expects this number to go to as high as $41 million in the first year of operation and then increase to $43 million in the coming years due to the initial interest factor and the potential of shared liquidity.<\/p>\n<p>Pennsylvania is expected to join the online shared poker player pools that are now in play with <strong>Delaware, Nevada, and New Jersey<\/strong> which just recently signed up. Although no timeframe has yet been defined, New Jersey regulators revealed that they are already in talks with their Pennsylvania counterparts to make sure they are ready once shared poker liquidity kicks in.<\/p>\n<p>Based on online player activity data from New Jersey, Grove also predicts that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.top10pokersites.net\/legal-pennsylvania-poker-sites\">Pennsylvania<\/a> will enjoy 350 to 700 concurrent players throughout the day. And with online poker festivals gaining momentum, Pennsylvania could see tournament total guarantees of up to $2 million and main event guarantees of up to $300,000.<\/p>\n<p>Pennsylvania\u2019s tax rate for online poker and table games is fixed at 16 percent, while online slots are taxed at a whopping 54 percent. This creates a blended tax rate of 42 percent for iGaming operators since slots produce the highest revenue in online gaming. Because of this, the report predicts that consumer adoption will be hard earned because the high tax rates will hamper online operators from offering promotions or marketing their products through advertising.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pennsylvania recently signed into law an expanded gaming measure that makes the Keystone state the fourth in the country to offer online gambling.
