Letter
From the Professor - September 3, 2008

Politics, Politics, Politics!
After months and months (and months) of pregame
activities, we’re now finally in the heart of the presidential
election season. This
week, the Republicans are holding their national convention in
St. Paul, following a hectic, historic week in which the
Democratic National Convention took the Denver area by storm.

And next week, when these
conventions are over, there will be two more months of intense
campaigning before Americans hit the polls on November 4 to
decide who will be the next president.

As you know, we at CAP have
taken a direct interest in this election — and all politics –
in large part because of UIGEA, the 2006 legislation that
basically ended all U.S.-based online gaming. Will the Democrats
have the ability (or motivation) to overturn the UIGEA? Will
Republicans ever figure out that this kind of legislation goes
directly against their often-repeated "government out of our
personal lives" mantra? Can either party be enticed to change
UIGEA?

It’s far too early to tell, but
we have a good feeling about Obama and his mandate for change
(as well as the Democrats’ overall progressive attitude). As
you’ll see below, some Forum posters agree with us. If you have
anything to chime in, check out the CAP Money l=
ink below to find where you can voice your
opinions. We’d love to know what you think.

Two New Promotions from
LuckyAcePartners:

Special 50% RevShare Offer for All
CasinoAffiliatePrograms.com Affiliates! Any affiliate who
joins LuckyAcePartners.com via CAP in September will be eligible
to receive 50% RevShare for the initial period of
September-October-November. This is an amazing deal — after
all, how often do you see offers for 50% RevShare? And
particularly, 50% RevShare that doesn’t carryover negative
account balances to the next month?

Starting December, the RevShare will be
permanently set to 30% for all who sign up during this period
(that’s still 5% higher than the normal rate). This
offer is only for new affiliates who are not already members at
LuckyAcePartners.com.

Free Lifetime Version of Pokerbility! LuckyAcePartners
are also offering all poker affiliates a unique promotion for
the players they refer: a free lifetime version of the real time
poker calculator Pokerbility.com! That’s a $99.95 value, offered
as a reward for all players that open a new real money account
at LuckyAcePoker.com through the affiliate traffic.

Another chance to win with PokerStars

Due to the format of this newsletter it is best viewed in HTML. You can view this email as it was intended
at http://www.pokerstars.com/poker/news/newsletters/cycle/us/3b-freeroll/

Watching Poker on TV is great fun, but don’t be fooled into thinking that is always the way to play. You are only seeing the edited highlights and miss the majority of hands where everybody folds to someone who makes a raise before the flop.

Winning tournaments is just as much about quietly staying out of dangerous situations as it is about re-raising all in with terrible cards to get your opponent to fold.

Televised poker can teach you a lot, but you have to know that what isn’t shown is just as important to playing winning poker.

Dear
PlayAccount1,

We didn’t see you at the “Ceres $500 Invitational” tournaments
this weekend. To make sure you don’t miss out on your opportunity
to win real money, we’ve decided to give you entry into this weekend’s
tournaments. The tournaments are at 18:00 ET on Saturday and Sunday and there’s
$500 up for grabs in each tournament. The tournaments are still 100%
free to enter – you’ve got nothing to lose!

The freerolls can be found in the PokerStars lobby under the “Tourney” tab.
Click on “Private” scroll to the “Ceres $500
Invitational” and
register. That’s all there is to it.

If you want to experience the thrill of real money cash games or buy-in tournament action, we have the biggest tournament schedule and the most cash games running on the Internet – with tournament buy-ins from just $0.10 and cash ring game stakes from as little as $0.01/$0.02.

The minimum deposit is just $10 which means you can play for hours without breaking the bank. Plus we’re still offering a special welcome bonus of 100% up to $50 free, helping to give your bankroll a boost.

If you have any questions, our customer service team is available to assist you 24 hours a day at support@pokerstars.com.

Enjoy the tournaments!

From the Professor - August 6, 2008

Share your
Knowledge with CAP
Member Reviews
A while ago, we launched a feature that allows the CAP community
to submit reviews for all the CAP certified programs featured on
our website.

We felt it was a great way for all the CAP re=
aders not only to get acquainted with all our
certified programs, but also to provide input on what they do or
don’t like about them.

Visit this link to see a list of all CAP =
Certified Programs.
For each program, you’ll find the Professor’s official review,
as well as current webmaster promotions and links to CAP Forum
threads that discuss the program. Each one also a
space for Member Reviews. And we need your input to
help build this section out.

I hope to generate some new
thoughts as to what programs the CAP community likes, and why.
This is the kind of group discussion that can elevate all our
games and enable us to provide better services to one and all.

We want to build up a library of
reviews for these programs to make sure we’re covering every bit
of information we can find. And we need your help to do that! So check out our CAP Certified=
Programs page today and let us
know what you think.

(Remember, the reviews are
moderated, meaning that they have to be approved by CAP before
being posted to the website.)

Manager’s Cor=
ner

Jorge, DoylesRoo=
m

Jorge was 12 years old the first time he walked into a
casino. His family owned several land-based casinos which
gave him the opportunity to fully understand the operational
end of the business. He started playing black jack and poker
at age 15, which also helped him understand the players’
needs and helped him successfully implement some of those
needs into this industry. Jorge’s business acumen stems from
online casinos that he managed in 1999. His work in the
online poker industry began in 2004 on a small operation
which was absorbed by The Doyle Brunson Poker Network that
same year. He has always been concerned with
players/affiliates in the industry and giving them his best
efforts, so it was natural that he accepted the position of
Affiliate Manager for the Doyle Brunson Poker Network after
only a few short months with the company. Since taking over
the management of the Affiliate program for DoylesRoom,
the department has grown over 500 percent, and Jorge
attributes this success to his ability to recognize and meet
the needs of this constantly changing industry. Jorge and
his wife Nana live in Costa Rica and are currently waiting
the arrival of their first child together.

Congratulations, Jorge!
