At Bodog, most my promotion is for poker but have had players come along and lose $30K per year in the casino. At Betfair I promote poker rakeback at a an awful overide but I earn full commission from those players activities in Betfair's other products: $XXXX other product for every $XX earned in poker, and we mostly promote the poker. Betfair offers a great CPA too $150 or $200 or something, forget what it is.. but its not worth it.. MGR is cleary way to go at both Bodog and Betfair
(Note: don't focus on US market so not sure if Bodog CPA might be better for US or not)
To answer OP, I don't promote casino's much. I got an awesome CPA deal with
888 and have done fairly well with it over the years and still promote it. Problem for me is money don't motivate me much at all - I do what I do because I like doing what I do, I've always put player first, then poker rooms I promote second and my income 3rd, but the negotiated deal with poker room needs to be fair first for me to put them ahead of my own income, once thats set I don't worry much about it again - and the money always shows up just the same.
So guess its just my personality, I'll promote casinos when it excites me.. like Betfair having a Zero Edge casino or
888 having a nice bonus offer etc.. If I'd do it myself I'll tell others about it. But, with casino offers not really exciting me much other than a few here and there I can't really see myself every really focusing hard on it. I wish I could care about money more as it would make life a lot easier but once you've made and lost millions twice the 3rd time around money don't seem like much other than something that comes and goes and shows up 100% of the time as its need or purpose becomes clear.
