Rebecca Liggero

Rebecca Liggero loves meeting new people and traveling – perfect qualities for someone who has won friends and influenced people in the worldwide online gaming community.

After graduating from Bates College with a degree in psychology, Rebecca spent four years in Washington, DC, working in relationship management, dreaming all the while about someday making it big in online gaming. After turning down an opportunity to live in New Zealand, she moved back to Boston and signed on as Senior Account Manager for Casino City – the beginning of a dream come true!

Rebecca’s work on behalf of Casino City (and later for the GPWA as well) took her to trade shows and conferences everywhere – Amsterdam, Barcelona, Costa Rica, Montreal, London, Las Vegas, Macau and many other ports of call – and along the way she began chronicling her incredible around-the-clock adventures in a wildly entertaining and industry-savvy weekly column that quickly became – and still remains – must reading for everyone who is anyone in online gaming. Following almost three years with the Casino City team, Rebecca spent a few months at Everest Affiliates where she was the Brand Manager of the affiliate program. While working on “the other side,” she realized that she truly missed her weekly column and the affiliate side of the business and decided to return to the Casino City family.

One and a half years later, Rebecca resigned from Casino City and joined industry icon Calvin Ayre to serve as the Bodog Global Brand Ambassador and the head on-site reporter for the online gambling industry tablog, CalvinAyre.com. In her new capacity, Rebecca continues to travel the world, and when asked where she is based, her response is usually "on an airplane."

Rebecca's Recommendations - April 20, 2007

20 Apr 2007
By Rebecca Liggero

You would think I would have learned by now...but no...I took the bus from Boston to NYC. Again. But this time it was a living nightmare, and here is why:

1)Every seat was taken, and of course, I was jammed up against the window next to a guy that smelled weird and kept falling asleep while invading my personal space.
2)There was a crying baby. The whole entire ride.
3)The traffic was terrible so we were trapped on that horrible form of transportation for an extra hour.
4)The air conditioning broke about half way through the trip. The bus felt like a sauna. I was fanning myself with my Bluff magazine (yes, I really do read the publication) while sweating profusely and trying to ignore the crying baby.

So the moral of the story? NEVER take a bus. Ever. Fly, take the train, drive yourself, ride your bike if you have to, but don't EVER take the bus.

So anyway. I have a few very exciting announcements for you this week, the first being that this newsletter is about to undergo a major makeover. Next week you will be receiving the "Online Casino City Times" in lieu of "Rebecca's Online Gaming Recommendations" so please don't be scared when this happens. The new and improved Online Casino City Times will include my story of the week along with a lot more bonus info, online gaming news, top ten rankings, game, fact and poker word of the week, and much, much more. You are going to love it.

Next I would like to send a huge congrats to CASHCHASERE who won the GPWA vs. Poker Affiliate World poker tourney hosted by Absolute Poker this past Sunday night. Ya. I came in 45th out of 60. Nice. I would also like to send a huge thank you to my affiliate manger and very good friend at Absolute Poker who worked very hard to make this tournament possible. For those of you who have not had the Absolute Poker tourney experience, please sign up and check them out. I had an absolute blast. Ha.

Lastly, I would like to give all my poker players the opportunity to win two tickets to the "Lucky You" Premiere starring Drew Barrymore and Eric Bana. This coming Sunday, April 22nd at 10:15pm EST., Bluff will be hosting a free roll at Players Only and the winner will receive two tickets to the movie premiere of "Lucky You." The movie premier will be taking place at the Tribeca Film Festival on May 1st in NYC and the package includes air fare and two nights of hotel accommodations. Please visit Bluff's Online Feature for all the information you need to sign up and win.

That's it for now, my friends. Enjoy the weekend and keep your eye out for the new and exciting newsletter next week... Rebecca
