Cereus Network Lost 76% In Traffic
Both Cereus Network sites, UB.com and Absolute Poker, are most likely closing their sites for good. According to MSNBC.com, both of the sites are heading towards bankruptcy.
Cereus Network have already dismissed 300 of their employees in Costa Rica and it is about 95% of their whole staff.
According to Pokerscout.com, the Cereus Network has lost an incredible 76% of their traffic since “Black Friday”.
The three networks/sites that were negatively impacted by “Black Friday” (Pokerstars, Full Tilt Poker and the Cereus Network) have all taken their lumps, but the Cereus poker network has been particularly hard hit.
According to Pokerscout, Pokerstars has lost 26% of their traffic since “Black Friday”, while Full Tilt Poker has lost 38%. Both networks have seen their traffic more or less stabilize over the past week or so.
The Cereus Network, on the other hand, has lost an astounding 76% of their traffic since “Black Friday”. Pokerscout notes that the Cereus Network has now become a “minor player in online poker”, as they are now in 26th place in the tracking site’s online poker network rankings.
Unfortunately this most likely means that people who have their money on UB or Absolute Poker will not see their money ever again.
On the other hand, PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker customers will get all their money back – PokerStars have already began to pay their US customers and Full Tilt will begin to do so in the near future.
