I'm Still Alive...

Well, I wanted life in the fast lane and I'm starting to get a small taste of it. Managing a poker site newsletter takes quite a bit of time and communication with others, but I (and more importantly, our users) are pleased with the results so far. We've decided to make it a weekly newsletter, and are trying to keep it short and sweet, with maybe 1 or 2 specialized articles/interviews, and a tournament series update each issue.

Things seem to be going very well in Vegas now that homebase has been set up there. With a little luck and a LOT of hard work, it looks like I will making the cross country drive for our November trip, and just moving my things out there for good when I go. On our trip last month, I and another Chris noticed Gavin Griffin (2004 WSOP 3K PL Holdem Champ) playing at the 40/80 tables at the Wynn. We approached him and spoke very briefly of TZP, dropped him a card, and asked that he give us a call if he was interested. Well...he was! After spending some time with John in Vegas, he's decided to support TZP and wear our gear in upcoming tournaments, so that will be some great advertising for us. We are also having success with the staff at Top Pair Magazine as they're providing us with a couple of freerolls each month, and also looking to do a TZP article as soon as the October issue.

All in all, I'm staying incredibly busy, but with each day it's looking more and more like I'm getting closer to making a "dream job" happen for myself. I mean, if you love poker, what's better than being a Marketing Director for an OPR, living in Vegas promoting your site, and playing the game you love on the side??
