Weekly Update from Rich Muny, VP of Player Relations
Yesterday, PPA emailed an announcement on an important advocacy effort – the Players Will Never Fold campaign. For the one-year anniversary of Black Friday, it is our hope – and my personal expectation – that lawmakers will hear from all of us!
To put out the word, many of us have been appearing on poker webcasts and other media outlets. We have also promoted this on poker forums and poker news and discussion sites.
This is a key grassroots effort for the poker community. With an overwhelming effort at the grassroots level, the team working this at the lobbying level will have the backing they need to win that fight. So, let’s all take just a few minutes and be sure to participate!
Can I count on you to make this a success? Please CLICK HERE or on the banner below and do your part to win this fight!
