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 - March 9, 2007

9 Mar 2007

By Rebecca Liggero
Arctic blast. Yep. This is what Boston will be receiving later today. Someone please remind me...why do I live here? WHY? I feel bad for my kiwi friend who is vacationing on the East Coast this week as it is summertime in New Zealand and he is not used to the cold. This kiwi friend of mine used to be my main point of contact at Kiwi Casino, Kiwi Poker and Fastwin Casino, the same company that awarded me with a trip to New Zealand last year. When I found out he was coming to New York City I immediately booked a bus ticket as god knows when I will be seeing him again. And yes, you heard my correctly, "bus ticket". Why did I take the bus? Easy explanation. Trains and planes from Boston to NYC cost $200, the bus is $45. Quite a good deal if you ask me. Sure, the bus was completely full both ways, sure, the guy in front of me was on his cell phone for the 4.5 hours it takes to get home, and sure, the people hanging out in the bus station slightly frighten me, but it's cheap. So there. At least I didn't take the Fung Wah.


While I freeze my butt off here in Boston, I am constantly reminded of the gorgeous weather that my Poker Host friends enjoy down in Costa Rica. Thanks a lot guys. These lovely Swedish boys might have the social lives of college freshman, but they also manage a top notch poker site, Poker Host, which has just migrated to the Microgaming platform. What does this mean for you? Five million in guarantees per month, more free rolls per month, 21 flash casino games to enjoy before, during and after you play poker and more. In terms of bonuses, all new players receive a 100% match bonus up to $2000 and a one year free subscription to Bluff Magazine after depositing $100 or more. After joining the Poker Host community, you will find a variety of tournaments and additional promotions such as the $150,000 Sunday tourney, the $250k monthly, the daily $90,000+ guaranteed, and a Magic Hand bonus of $2,500 will be awarded every 4,000,000 hands dealt. Visit the new Poker Host for all schedules, details, and requirements. Good luck and enjoy!


Until next week...unless I freeze to death...Rebecca
