Zimba analysis:
It is interesting that the largest poker room PokerStars, has yet to develop their own app. Zynga has closed the gap on numbers of registered users with 36 million accounts, while PokerStars has over 41 million. While Zynga lags way behind in monetization of their users, the introduction of for pay to add chips and trying to patent online currency indicates Zynga plans to further develop their monetization. They already average 400,000 players at any one point during the day, numbers PokerStars doesn't get close to yet.
It seems that Blackberry will be the next smartphone market to tackle, as it's the largest smartphone market yet to be tapped.
