I've set up my account management to use the Casino City Fan page and the portal Online.CasinoCity.com. Here is an example of how your Fan page or group plus portal are promoted:

First page (within facebook, so no gaming sites or portals are linked to directly in order to remain very strictly compliant with Facebook rules). You can select a Facebook group about your site or a Fan page about your site to promote here. In the examples the Casino City logo displays because I've selected that as the fan page I am promoting.

When visitor clicks on "More Details" from the initial page they are taken out of facebook to placesiveplayed.com with pages that link to the casino site and are able to directly promote the portal. The second page examples include promotion of the fan page/group I've selected and above that also promote the portal with a direct link to it and a text description that you enter.

Example first page for land-based casino.

I am heading out soon but will add a feature request to have something like a "see what this does" functionality on the Fan Page/Group selection page and the Featured Site selection page within the management interface. Aside from increasing familiarity at the basic start-up, going directly to a live example would also make it easy for users to confirm that we have an up to date screenshot of the portal on file.

Hope this is helpful.
