Poker Fans & Players Visit PPA Booth At WSOP

The Poker Players Alliance (PPA) is making a huge effort to legalize online poker in the United States with a booth at the 2008 World Series of Poker that is continuing to draw in large crowds of supporters.  The Alliance's Poker Advocacy booth is featuring daily appearances by some of the best poker players in the world.

The booth is located in the main hallway of the Rio All Suite Hotel and Casino near the Amazon Room where the WSOP is taking place.  At the booth you can also find information on the PPA's activities and goals and get help contacting individual politicians so that players can urge on thier elected representative to take a more realistic legislative approach to the game of poker. 

Former Senator Alfonse D'Amato, the PPA chairman said: "We have come a long way in educating members of Congress and state elected officials that poker is a game of skill and not a crime. Yet the threats to our right to play this great game are not going away.
 
"The PPA's Poker Advocacy Booth makes it easier for poker aficionados at the WSOP to make their voices heard. We are very excited to bring our grassroots efforts to poker's hallowed ground, and we are grateful that Harrah's and the WSOP have provided us with premium space to get our message to the poker community."
