888 has over 20 million users and 790 employees?  :blinkie: ...and PartyGaming has a larger market cap than British Airways?  :blinkie: I didn't realize that online gambling had gotten that big.

Speaking of PartyGaming, its shares plunged 33% this week after it reduced growth estimates...that is a loss of about $3.4 billion in market capitalization.

They still managed to generate revenues of over $430 million in the 1st 6 months this year.  :blinkie:  ...make that a double shocked smilie  :blinkie: :blinkie: that people spend that much playing online poker.
