The popularity of poker has increased dramatically over the last few years. People are playing poker in online poker rooms, at casinos, in their homes, on college campuses, and even on television. The question this brings up is how long will poker’s popularity last? A lot of things become extremely popular only to disappear rapidly such as television shows and hair styles. Within the last few months their has been talk of a decline in ratings of poker television shows, which may be proof the decline of poker is coming.
I believe poker will begin its decline within the next year but I can’t predict why. Maybe people will consider there are better ways to spend their money. Maybe another game will become more popular. May be the game will get to competitive. I guess only time will tell what the future of poker will be. Until that time I am sure that people will continue to play the game that has taken America by storm.
