iPoker Separates Today

iPoker requirements to a Poker room were the following: 6,000 active players grinding at its tables (active meaning generating at least $1 rake) plus 850 new real money players each month,  and they also considered player's balances and the regular-fish ratio. If a room does not qualify, it will be moved from the primary to the secondary network.
