Recently, there has been a serious online poker boom amidst the COVID-19 crisis.

WSOP.com still holds the first place in the highest poker revenue. The site totalled $1.3 million in June, up 61% year over year but down 17.7% from May.
The site’s bracelet series, WSOP Online is expected to bring big numbers for WSOP.com in July’s report.
PartyPoker and its BorgataPoker.com and BetMGM skins combined for $914,503 in June. Even with the lowest revenue of the poker operators, the site saw the highest percentage growth year over year.
