Rewarding Registered Members

The Poker Players Alliance anticipates surpassing a million registered members as early as the end of Spring – and most likely even sooner if the company announces a signup promotion. The PPA is a pressure group that is currently fighting the U.S. online casinos gambling ban and specifically pushing the politicians to carve-out exemptions in the ban pertaining to internet poker. The PPA has spent nearly a million at this point in lobbying funds and plans to continue lobbying in Washington, and in Massachusetts where the state’s governor is attempting to criminalize online casinos gambling. Through all of this political lobbying the PPA is pushing to reach a million members because of the strength that number will give the group when lobbying Washington politicians. As the PPA comes closer to the million mark, Executive Director John Pappas has commented that the Alliance will soon announce a promotion to encourage new member registration.

John Pappas has led the PPA essentially since its inception and continues actively pursue legalize online casinos gambling, or at least internet poker, in the United States. And now that the million mark in firmly in sight (the group reported 930,000 at last count), the PPA is pushing hard with promotions and other incentives to encourage players to register with the Alliance. Pappas notes, “We had a couple of the leading sites running promotions for us, which really helped gather new members. They hosted freerolls and then there’s generally a lag time when we update our official totals. I know we’ll be adding more members in the coming weeks. I’m confident we’ll get to one million members by early spring.”

And while those promotions have been successful in driving up the online casinos poker gambling pressure group’s member numbers, Pappas is considering running a bigger promotion to boost the total over ideal million registered members. Although there is no official decision on what incentive the PPA will offer for registration, Pappas commented, "Right now, I want to have an incentive for the 1 000 000th member. I think that once we make an announcement, we’ll have an increase in membership. We have discussed everything from giving that lucky person a seat in the WSOP to having them come to Washington.” The group will be announcing the exact promotion in the coming weeks.
