InsidePoker Business (IPB) What do you make of the poker market, is it in decline and is that decline terminal?

Malcolm Graham (MG) I don't think it's growing in Europe. There are certain economies such as Ireland and Greece where the current macro-economic climate is pretty horrible and people are being more circumspect about their poker activity. I don't think poker is over. It's going to be a very important business going forward, but I think there is no doubt there is going to be a smaller number of bigger players and we will see a number of operators where poker is not their core business sub-contract their poker to someone else.
