Skill games gaining momentum online

We kind of knew it would eventually happen--the market is getting bigger and has been maturing for a while; the number of games available is also expanding. Since the US is stuck in this purgatory of the unknown with the online gambling ban and that this form of play has been clarified as safe and legal, is there really any surprise that the skill game genre is one of the hottest trends in online gaming?

Skill games differ from casino games, bingo or poker because they are not considered "games of chance." The outcome of the games center on the players' skill and/or knowledge of a certain contest or subject, which opens the door for U.S. players to compete without legal consequences. The biggest one is Trivia, which seems to be spreading like wildfire.

Triviaonnet.com, a multi-player trivia tournament site that has been a huge hit in the short time it has been available, acquired more than 10,000 members in just a few weeks. In order to not alienate other players who may not be as successful, online sites have started breaking things down into niches which should provide a whirlwind of success.
