Sportsbook.com and PlayersOnly Moving to Merge.

In some breaking news that was recently announced, the company that owns PlayersOnly and Sportsbook.com have decided to merge with – well, you guessed it, the Merge Network.

The ironic twist will unite some of the biggest sites in the world and affect only the poker skins on PlayersOnly and Sportsbook and effectively move them over from the Cake Network and onto another medium-sized network in Merge, which houses rooms like Aced.com and has some great Carbon Rakeback deals from Carbon Poker – formerly known as PDC Poker.

The move will be official on April 15th, 2010, and insiders have said that traffic will double or nearly triple once these sites move over to the Merge Gaming family of sites.  Included in the monumental deal will be some sick rakeback offers in upwards of 30 to 35 percent, which bodes well for recreational and veteran players alike.

This also means a lot more action may come about in the sportsbooks of these sites, which is ALWAYS a good thing for the sports betting community.

We look forward to seeing all the new things Merge and its network of sites will do in the future, especially Carbon Poker – the biggest and most promising poker room currently sitting on Merge.
