Weekly Update from Rich Muny, VP of Player Relations
Last week, I invited you to this Saturday’s Las Vegas PPA Town Hall. If you are in town, I hope you will stop by to meet with us. We have a terrific line up, including key poker backer Congressman Joe Barton, Executive Director John Pappas, 2004 World Series of Poker Champion & Board Member Greg Raymer, Poker Hall of Famer & Board Member Linda Johnson, Director of Grassroots and External Affairs Drew Lesofski, Nevada State Director Lupe Soto, and me. You won’t want to miss this!
We will discuss the efforts to pass legislation to license online poker, answer everyone’s questions, and spend a lot of time getting your feedback on the advocacy effort and on what you would like to see from PPA in the future. We all hope to see you there!
