Why is online poker so popular among college students? what do you say, is it only because of online poker''s popularity, players can participate in multiple games at once; where poker in person would only allow an individual to play one game at a time or there can be other reasons for pokr popularity.

I am guessing that many of them make money out of playing poker. And you do understand that it usually is complicated for students to drive, or sometimes fly, to casinos and play live poker

One more thing is satellites, many students want to play in such huge turneys like WSOP and WPT, but cant buy in them selfs, so they just go through online satellites.

Yes i must say i agree with you that, the ability to play multiple games simultaneously has made it possible for players to obtain serious profits. College students being able to win and lose large amounts of money in a relatively short amount of time has opened and closed financial doors which is attracting most of the them.
