Unless you've got some insider info that the rest of us don't have, you are just speculating and being alarmist.

I've sold two poker domains that weren't nearly as good as this one, one for high 4 figures, the other for low-mid 5 figures. If I owned pokerpower.com, er powerpoker.com (both are good), I would expect it to fetch at least mid-high 5 figures to basically whatever the buyer was willing to bear. As others have pointed out, $160k is peanuts to a lot of these operators.

Traffic and revenue play little part in a lot of domain sales when talking about branding specifically and that is what this is surely about.
