21st February 2014, Las Vegas, USA (Press Release) – In 2013, iGaming North America offered an exclusive forum dedicated entirely to online poker player issues. At the time, however, we did not yet have the luxury of discussing U.S.-regulated online poker as it was not yet live. That has now changed, with several real-money online poker networks having gone live in Nevada, Delaware and New Jersey since the conclusion of last year’s event.
This year, the poker track at iGNA returns with an enlarged poker player panel along with the addition of a timely poker-specific session: “Regulated Online Poker – The Story So Far.”
Chris Grove, founder and publisher of popular iGaming news hub OnlinePokerReport.com, will moderate a panel made up by:
· Chris Danek, Poker Product Manager at Ultimate Poker
· Bill Rini, Head of Online Poker at Caesars Interactive
· Dan Stewart, Founder and Publisher of Pokerscout.com
· John Mehaffey, Independent iGaming Consultant
The panel will discuss the intense liquidity contests and aggressive marketing campaigns that have already characterized the American online poker landscape, with Danek and Rini drawing from personal experience and Stewart and Mehaffey weighing in as impartial observers.
iGaming North America’s unique Poker Players Panel will return as well, with Pokerfuse editor Mike Gentile moderating a diverse panel of players who will capture both the professional and the recreational player’s voice, made up by:
· Shaun Deeb, iconic online poker grinder
· Jason Somerville, Ultimate Poker Pro
· Dr. Dominic Ricciardi, Las Vegas physician and part-time poker player
· Danielle Andersen, professional online poker player and star of the movie Bet, Raise, Fold
The 2014 iGNA Poker Track is sponsored by PokerTracker.
iGaming North America will host its 4th annual conference March 19-21 at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas with the Social Gaming Conference taking place on March 20. For more information on this and the other sessions featured at the conference click here www.iGamingNorthAmerica.com
