The world’ largest real money online poker site PokerStars is said to be contemplating the addition of a sportsbook.

PokerStars parent company, The Rational Group, issued a statement to PokerFuse.com on Thursday that they are in the process of “exploring opportunities to enter global sports betting markets to enhance our online gaming offerings.”
