Pennsylvania officially became the sixth state to join the Multi-State Internet Gaming Agreement (MSIGA) on Wednesday as Governor Josh Shapiro gave his final approval on the online poker agreement.
With its population of over 13 million and over 150,000 online poker players, Pennsylvania brings much-anticipated shared liquidity to a player pool that includes players from New Jersey, Nevada, Delaware, West Virginia, and Michigan.
In a press release, the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board said it would "work with operators and state gaming agencies to ensure that Pennsylvania’s approximately 150,000 online poker players are provided with the same assurances offered through other online gaming options by using a fair and thoroughly tested platform."
"This expansion will also afford larger prize pools without requiring an increase in buy-in amounts," the press release said.
After signing off on the agreement, Shapiro sat down with Poker Hall of Famer and PokerGO President Mori Eskandani for a conference call interview about the development to the online poker landscape.

"I Think It's Common Sense"
In his seven-minute interview with Eskandani, who played a pivotal role in increasing the popularity of poker during the Poker Boom, the Democratic governor described joining MSIGA after a years-long fight as "common sense."
"I think it's common sense," the governor told Eskandani. "There's a bunch of folks like you out there, including 150,000 people right here in my state ... who love to play poker online. And I think they should be able to play poker online not just with people from Pennsylvania, but they should be able to reach out and do it with people from other states; not have to wait as long for a game; and have games that are more vibrant and competitive."

Shapiro, who made national headlines earlier this month after an arson attack at the Pennsylvania governor's mansion that caused him and his family to evacuate, said he generally supported personal freedoms like gambling and added that he thought joining MSIGA could encourage other states to follow suit.
Is the US getting closer to legalizing online poker nationwide or in a majority of states? "I hope so. And not because I'm trying to encourage people to go out and gamble or play poker or do something else. It's up to you. But if you want to do that, I think it's important to make it easy."
Shapiro even accepted an invitation to a poker game for government officials inside the PokerGO Studio in Las Vegas.
"That would be cool," he said. "We should do that. That would be a lot of fun. We'll probably talk a lot of sh*t on one another even though we all really like each other."
BetMGM Poker Joining MSGIA
Also on Wednesday, BetMGM Poker PA announced that it would join the BetMGM Poker shared player pool with New Jersey and Michigan on Monday, April 28 at 9 a.m. local time.
“Pennsylvania represents the largest state to join the shared player pool and turbocharges our poker platform," BetMGM Vice President of Gaming Angus Nisbet, said in a press release. "This expanded player pool will allow us to deliver more games and bigger tournaments to our players. BetMGM Poker is ready to celebrate the growth of our shared liquidity network throughout the spring and summer in a variety of ways.”

BetMGM Poker ambassador and four-time World Poker Tour (WPT) champion Darren Elias said that adding a large market like Pennsylvania "is a huge milestone in continued expansion and provides the opportunity to compete against more players and for larger prize pools."
"I used to call Pennsylvania home, and it played an important part in my early poker career. I can't wait to log in and get in the mix," Elias said.
Other Pennsylvania online poker operators like WSOP PA and PokerStars PA have yet to say whether they plan on joining MSIGA.

- Limiting wins and losses is yet another essential component of responsible gaming. For example, it might be prudent to take a break or stop playing completely if you hit a set loss limit during a session rather than trying to recover losses through additional play. By setting win limits, on the other hand, you can make sure that you leave with profits instead of jeopardizing them in later hands. 25-05-10

- It takes a combination of strategic thinking, foresight, and flexibility to develop a successful online rummy strategy. Card observation is one essential component; players need to be very aware of the cards their opponents pick and discard. Making educated decisions about which cards to keep or discard is made easier by this, in addition to helping determine what combinations they might be forming. An opponent may not be attempting a flush in that suit, for example, if they routinely discard hearts. In this case, you can safely hold onto heart cards without worrying about them finishing a meld. 25-05-10

- Gamers should seek out platforms that protect financial and personal data with encryption technology. Understanding a platform's dependability and credibility can also be gained by reading reviews and looking for licenses from respectable gaming authorities. Also, having access to help when problems arise can greatly improve your overall experience, which is why responsive customer support is crucial. To master online rummy, as with any skill-based game, practice is key. Numerous platforms provide practice modes or free play options so that users can improve their skills without having to worry about losing money. 25-05-10
- Depending on the particular variation being played, the rules may differ slightly, but the game usually uses a standard 52-card deck. With the aim of obtaining a pure hand—one that is made up of only legitimate combinations & no unmatched cards—players take turns drawing and discarding cards. Rummy's online variant has become incredibly popular because it's convenient & accessible. 25-05-10
- Building this foundation not only positions you for future melds as the game goes on, but it also lowers the number of points you might lose if another player leaves the game. To finish your meld, for instance, you can concentrate on obtaining 4 or 8♠ if you have 5♠, 6♠, and 7♠. Managing your discards well is another helpful tip. If your opponent goes out unexpectedly, you can reduce your risk by discarding high-value cards early in the game. 25-05-10

- On the other hand, it may be beneficial to keep cards that are less likely to aid your opponents. If you have a 2♦ that doesn't fit into any of your melds and you see that your opponent is gathering diamonds, for example, it might be wise to hold onto it until you can determine whether it would be helpful for your own hand or if it would jeopardize your opponent's strategy. A fun gaming experience depends on choosing the right online rummy platform. 25-05-10
