WSOP

A quick note to update you all on our travels. Just got back from the Gaming Life Expo at the World Series of Poker. Got a chance to talk to a lot of great companies about some exciting new stuff we hope to offer you in the near future! And, of course, hung out with some of the best players around. Here's a pic of Chris and the Poker Brat (who is apparently too scared to come play in our legendary home game):

Poker Blogs

Wow, that was fast. We've already got two great bloggers up and posting for us:

Check out Rich's blog at www.perpetualtilt.blogspot.com for all the action from his weekly poker games and the tables at Foxwoods.

And Jonny Jenq's got the Bentley College poker scene (as well as his own musings) covered over at www.bentleypoker.blogspot.com.

Not quite a full blog yet, but if you're on Facebook, you can check out Mick's notes.

If you'd like to be a CPA Blogger, cover all the poker action at your school, and have access to special bloggers-only freerolls and other promotions, send us a message at management@collegepokerassociation.com.

Thanks,
College Poker Association

Bloggers

College Poker Association is looking to establish an official poker blogger at every campus around the country. You would cover poker on your campus, online, and wherever else you play. You would occasionally link to our site within the content of your posts. We would feature your site as the official blog for your school on our site and RSS feed your post in to the school pages being developed on our site. Additionally, you would have special access to exclusive College Poker Association tournaments and other exciting events. Most importantly, College Poker Association is currently developing an online/live College Poker Tour and is in discussion with two groups about producing a television series. As a campus blogger you would serve as point of first media contact for your school, covering the action as it unfolds for all your friends to follow online.

If you're interested in blogger about poker on your campus or are already a poker blog and want to find out how you can get involved, please send me a message email us at management@collegepokerassociation.com

We appreciate your time and good luck at the tables!
