Keep in mind that when Seals was up, there was basically no contest. While other BTC poker sites existed (including Betcoin), they were considered non-factors and barely had any traffic.

It seems that now people are choosing Betcoin over Seals. This is the first time in more than 3 years that a site besides Seals/swcpoker led bitcoin poker traffic.

Basically betcoin is winning in the same way that John McCain won the 2008 Republican primary -- by default.
To be fair Betcoin has a sports book, casino, poker rakeback, and you can play the same MTTs/SNGS on it that you can play on the Winning Poker Network as well as some MTTs for that site only.

Betcoin has it's own cash player pool though which isn't hooked up to the rest of WPN if I'm not mistaken.

Their is no reason to play on SWC Poker unless someone is just a fan of Micon feeling sorry for him.
