The Story

Colombia is reportedly not following through with its plans to allow its online poker licensees to share player liquidity with internationally licensed poker sites.

It was in November when the Coljuegos regulatory agency announced that it would allow its licensed online poker operators to share player liquidity with poker sites in other regulated markets.
