existing social networking technology that has only just begun to get used to
its full potential. Twitter is a growing phenomenon in the online casino
gambling industry –in particular in relation to this year’s World Series of
Poker events (WSOP). Land and online casino poker gamblers just can’t seem to
get enough of the WSOP this time of the year and Poker Road Nation has really
upped the anti this year with the use of Twitter in conjunction with the WSOP
events and poker gambling pros who have made it out for the events.
The internet poker portal is, surprisingly, the first and only online casino
poker related site to take advantage of the large base of international users.
Twitter is really one of the only sites in its category currently in the market

form of interaction. Twitter though allows networked twitter subscribers to post
short comments that are published into the network. Online casino poker gamblers

year to really link the WSOP with the growing base of online casino poker
gamblers as well as provide a link from this huge industry event to the social
networking stratosphere. The Twitter feed is already proving a big hit and Poker
Road Nation has posted comments and brief quotes from these poker gambling pros
