Canada is Poker’s Other Superpower

When it comes to live poker, the United States has long been the superpower in the game due to the various venues that includes Las Vegas. Despite the global expansion of the game, many top players choose to move to the U.S. or spend a significant portion of their careers playing in the U.S.
