Re: What do you mean by \"worked with the PPA to get the word out \"?
Hi Milton,
Sorry if it comes off as smirking. That's not the intent though I'm sure if you disagree with me it's probably easy to read that into it. Being an a-hole by nature even my non-smirking still has a hint of smirking.
I've been one of the earliest supporters of the PPA. I've spoken to PPA President Michael Bolcerek more than a few times about raising the organizations awareness in the community of poker bloggers so they could in turn spread the message to a wider audience. I've gone out and personally contacted other poker bloggers and asked them to spread the word. I also, along with another poker blogger, asked Howard Lederer to come speak at a tournament of poker bloggers in Vegas where he talked about the trip he did to DC with the PPA.
And I've also busted the PPA's chops about where I saw them failing. There are a lot of things they've done and haven't done that I don't 100% agree with but I do think that they're at least out there trying. I know the PPA's name has been dragged through the mud on 2+2 but I also know exactly how understaffed they are and I have to give some kudos to Michael. He's always come off to me as nothing other than a guy busting his butt trying to change things.
