Their p/e seems to be based on the belief that they will sustain the same growth as they have for the past 2 years, despite the fact that they now seem to be growing very slowly. The poker fad is peaking, and while it may continue to chug on about where it is or maybe even grow slowly it is apparent to any poker player that it is not growing anywhere near fast enough to warrant such an absurd share price.

Perhaps because of online pokers semi-legal status in some places, they like to keep a low profile. Not that I have any idea what I'm talking about.

I've found that I'm much more likely to get paid when I make a hand; people will bet their entire stack with TPTK (and sometimes even worse).
