Who is the real online poker attendance record holder?
At one point, 600,000 players were online, which is truly impressive. This raises an interesting question: which site is the record holder for online poker traffic?

The Guinness Book of World Records states that PokerStars still holds the record for the “most players on an online poker site” in its most popular year.
in 2009, 316,000 players regularly logged on and actively played at PokerStars' 42,814 tables.
To provide some context, in January 2024, 12,000 people were playing at GGPoker cash game tables.
10,314 users accessing the platform every 30 days is a significant number of players. WSOP Online 2025 has a large number of new users.
GGPoker: from outsider to industry leader
GGPoker has come a long way over the years. in 2018, few knew about the site.
It was poised for a big leap. By 2021, the site had overtaken long-time rival PokerStars to become the world's largest online poker room.
Since then, GGPoker has maintained its record by hosting the biggest online events and game series.
In addition, along with PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker when it was still in operation, it is now one of the few sites with an average of more than 10,000 daily cash game players.
$500 million WSOP takeover

GGPoker made a bold move last year by paying $500 million for the World Series of Poker brand. This smart decision increased its popularity worldwide and linked the WSOP to its platform.
With such a large investment and dominance, it is logical to ask whether GGPoker is going to take over the whole of online poker. Given the current situation, GGPoker's takeover of the online poker market could become a reality.
GGPoker is now the most recognised online poker brand. It has made several profitable deals and attracted many new players.
By 2025, WSOP Online will be more than just a game. GGPoker will attract an unprecedented number of new players.
PokerStars still holds the Guinness World Record for the most active tables, but GGPoker is about to overtake it.
More than 500,000 people have already joined and there are still millions of dollars in prizes up for grabs in September.
This proves that the platform is dominating and is ahead of the game.
