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." Contact Rebecca at rebecca@liggero.net. Be careful, though – she might quote you.

Rebecca's Recommendations - April 7, 2006

7 Apr 2006

By Rebecca Liggero
Welcome back! So I’m headed to Amsterdam tonight for an online gaming conference that will be taking place on Sunday and Monday. I cannot wait. The next 72 hours of my life will be filled with networking, exhibit hall attendance, and of course, drinking, dancing, partying, smoking and LOTS of hookers. Ha, ha, just kidding. Seriously, though, notice that "sleep" was not included in the list- this is because I will not be sleeping. Period. Open bar parties and crazy Amsterdam nightlife accompanied by an 8am start at the exhibit hall each day does not allow for sleep. It's cool, though, I can handle it.


Anyway, back to reality. First, I want to send out a HUGE congratulations to Alan Sofer for winning the Casino City poker prize at the NHF Game Night! Alan will be representing Casino City in Vegas while playing at the WSOP in a few months, so please keep him in your thoughts. On a side note, Ryan, one of our very own Poker Reporters, attended the Game Night as well and won a trip to Vegas due to his incredible gambling skills. Can you believe this? Some people are so lucky...


While we're on the subject of winning trips to Vegas, I would like to encourage you to open up an account at VIP Casinos. Why? Because they have a kick-ass loyalty program, VIP Rewards, which could end up sending YOU to Vegas! Here's how...play at the casino! Simply playing at VIP Casinos will result in VIP points which can be used to purchase Vegas sweepstakes entries. The next winner will be chosen on June 1st, 2006, so get those entries in by May 30th. In addition to offering this excellent promotion, VIP Casinos has created an exclusive offer for Casino City players. Instead of the usual 100% first deposit bonus up to $100, Casino City players can claim a 200% first deposit bonus up to $200.


There is another group of online gaming properties that consistently offer excellent promotions for all players- these properties are represented by
Casino Pays. In preparation for my recommendations, I spoke with my favorite Casino Pays contact a few days ago, actually. The two of us discussed the promotions that are taking place at the Casino Pays family of online casinos and we came up with the following highlights for you. First off, Diamond Club won the Casino Pays' "casino of the month" in March, and for the month of April, Diamond Club is featuring a diamond ring promotion. For every $50 players deposit in their account, one raffle ticket is earned- the more you deposit, the more chances you have of winning a diamond ring! Secondly, for the poker players out there, CD Poker will be hosting an exclusive poker tournament with a $100 million prize! There will be two daily freeroll qualifiers and the top five players will advance to a $500,000 freeroll on April 30th. The top 10 players of this freeroll will compete at the final table for a potential grand prize of $100 mill.


Lastly, before embarking on my crazy journey, I would like to leave you with this: on April 1st I received a "press release" from
Bodog in my inbox. The PR was about Bodog's plans to launch a casino in outer space, yes outer space, entitled "Bobird". I totally believed it. The next day I received another "press release" from Bodog and all it said was, "April Fools!" Yes, I am an idiot.Rebecca
