GPWA Times magazine issue 8 to be released at CAC Amsterdam

**MichaelCorfman** · 25 March 2009, 3:17 pm

I'm very pleased to report the eighth issue of the GPWA Times Magazine will be available at the Casino Affiliate Convention in Amsterdam this coming Monday and Tuesday, March 30-31.

GPWA Times Magazine - Eighth Issue Cover

In this issue's cover story, Gary Trask gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the latest developments in 3D gaming, which isn't just for poker anymore. He shows how LeCroupier and Buzzluck are applying the PKR formula to the rest of the casno. Lifelike graphics and astute marketing are attracting more and more players to try something dramatically different.

We also continue our popular interview series, this time with four affiliates (GPWA members casinoranking, chalkie, robertmedl, shaz) and three affiliate managers (Dina Cohen of 3Aff, Sami Malka of BestPay, and Kate Garber of Pitbull Partners). Plus Andy of Affiliate Guard Dog weighs in with his words of wisdom on choosing affiliate programs and Jeremy Enke of Poker Affiliate Listings writes on the benefits of bogging for poker affiliates.

Plus Nicky Senyard discusses the pros and cons of AdWords, Connie Burstin shares her thoughts on the competitive value of cross-cultural operations. And we report on the recent Income Access affiliate marketing survey, share comments from attendees at the GPWA January conference in Las Vegas, and Attorney Joseph Kelly examines the UIGEA's exemption from U.S. federal prosecution for fantasy sports. In addition, our "Departments" sections are chock-full of news, gossip, facts, and figures - and the latest installment of our cartoon caption contest. You're invited to enter to win!

And last, but certainly not least, we have a great six page spread from Rebecca Liggero about some of her friends in the affiliate world. See an up-close and personal view of the folks she knows behind RakeTheRake.com, Rakeback.org, Poker Source Online, Pokerisivut.com, Wager Industries, Gambling911.com, Slots.org, Online.CasinoCity.com, info-casino-online.com, CasinoGuide.com, SmartGambler.com, CasinoMeister.com and Reefmedia.com.

We send them all around the world, and of course that includes Costa Rica. In fact, the vast majority of the issues we mail out are sent overseas. Just make sure we have your address information properly recorded as noted at the end of my initial post in this thread.

Is this the 1st issue since the fall? I have not received a mag since the issue that was at CAP Euro.

**wagerprofits** · 25 March 2009, 10:41 pm

CasinoJack can pick you up so copies over the weekend and get the dropped down or we could meet up for coffee or something after CAC!!!

**raphnix** · 26 March 2009, 3:19 am

With the look of the Cover Page, GPWA Magazine sure is becoming trendy and updated with the latest technology. 3D Casinos huh?

I can't wait to read the article about it.

GPWA and trendy no offence the 2 do not go together, i see the GPWA as the nerd the provides you all th einformation and support that you need.

I hope that does not offend, but if that is the cover it does look great.

Issue 6 was distributed in Barcelona in the fall. Issue 7 was distributed at the ICE conference in January.

If you fill in your address information as described at the end of the first post in this thread, you will also receive a copy of the prior issue since we do try to send at least the prior issue to new subscribers until we run out.

Well, I be the first to admit that on the nerd-trendy scale I'm pretty solidly on the nerd end of the spectrum, but we do have a few trendy employees, and I pretty much let them have the run of things in terms of the look and feel of the magazine. I'd just be one too many cook, and the other folks are definitely much better at putting together a magazine than I would ever be.

If you take a look at Issue 8, I think you'll agree that the pages inside the magazine are indeed pretty trendy. And Shaun, I think even you would have to agree Rebecca is no nerd - two of the six pages of her spread about affiliates are in the sample pages.

Nice job GPWA!

Does anyone know off-hand how many words are on a typical mag page/article or how much space 2,000 words would fill up?

**CasinoCityRebecca** · 26 March 2009, 10:40 am

Um, excuse me Shaun, my article is not NERDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! haaaa. It's ok, I understand- you are just sad that you were not included this time around. Maybe for June's issue I'll consider including your beautiful face.

Just kidding. In all seriousness, one of the reasons why I love our magazine so much is because there really is something for everyone in there- very diverse content and quite a few different personalities are included in each article, advertisement, and interview. See you soon! Becky

My papers are in order..... I usually get them in the mail... I guess someone else wanted it more than me. Please send me a copy with the current (or before).

This question is actually fairly tricky, because it depends on margins/fonts/font sizes artwork, how many columns of text, etc. At a lot of magazines, 800-900 words would fill up a single page with absolutely no artwork. But that's just a really rough estimate.

Thank you vinism.

That is what I needed to know and answers my question.

Ok I admit it, the meds were really heavy in late January, I did receive the issue with Paddy Power on the cover and Rebecca's photo collection. oops...

**Redbush54** · 26 March 2009, 3:36 pm

I filled in my details earlier today so I certainly hope I receive it also.....Thanks
