Did anyone see this http://www.casinoaffiliateprograms.c...awn.25670.html? What about PAP takes on the winner???

This could get interesting

[Jeremy]

I am a little depressed that I was not asked to be on that team. I mean, I am 160 lb.'s of pure muscle.

The young strength at PAP would destroy these old casino guys anyways. We'll take the winner. Apply within.

I got next

[alexpratt]

Quick heads up - 9 weeks togo and I have just been informed just under half the rooms that the main resort have been taken so if you are errring I would book sooner than later.

Also - Registration will go online next week PLUS if all goes to plan so should the ASOP site AND we should have a special announcement

[Jeremy]

In respect to the ASOP, keep in mind guys we are giving away a WSOP main event package as well as the bracelet this time around.

I can't think of a better freeroll than that!

And yes, our announcement next week should be very exciting.

First CAP SpringBreak Event announced
Prime Gaming and EGO (the affiliate arm of RedKings and BGroom) have announced they will be jointly hosting a beach barbeque onThursday 22nd May

In true CAP SpringBreak style the first sponsored event announced by the organizers is a fantastic beach barbeque taking place on the first full day of the event straight after the final table of the ASOP (Affiliate Series of Poker) so the winner can celebrate in true Cyprus style.

Like any event that takes place at CAP SpringBreak this won’t be just any old barbeque on the beach with warm beer and burnt sausages. In fact the sponsors have promised this will be a party you won’t want to miss out on with plenty of surprises and Cypriot themed twists to the event from souvlaki, sheftlalia and haloumi to specially selected Cypriot cocktails and surprises.

“I am really pleased excited about this event – It really shows the commitment these guys have for making CAP SpringBreak in Cyprus the best one yet” commented Louis Fabiano, founder of CasinoAffiliatePrograms.com and CAP SpringBreak. “You just can’t beat hanging out at a barbeque with friends and colleagues from the affiliate community, and not just any barbeque, this is the ultimate in barbeques with an incredible location coupled with traditional Cypriot food and drink.”

The barbeque itself will be taking place at Drops Café bar which is located literally on the beach providing affiliates with an incredible backdrop of sun, sea and sand to enjoy – In fact the barbeque runs all the way from midday to seven pm which means guests will also be able to enjoy the incredible Cyprus sun set before setting off for the next CAP SpringBreak event!

If you want to thank the sponsors before or after the event you will find them both exhibiting at the Poker Conference, which takes place for the two days preceding CAP SpringBreak. Their well known brands include RedKings Poker, BGroom, Prime Casino, Prime Poker and Prime Scratchcards.

what micro room freeroll do we need to play at to enter the ASOP?

[Jeremy]

It will be EverestPoker.net and probably PokerKings.com. That schedule should be out soon.

Also don't forget, this years ASOP winner will get a $10K WSOP package AND the blinged out ASOP bracelet. $20K in total value to the winner.

We have just secured our deal with David Devilfish Ulliot as well. He will be there and we are trying to arrange a turbo heads-up match between him and the ASOP winner.

[GoodKarmaKid]

Can we get a real money event going so we don't have to play goofy freerolls? Players play a lot differently in Free Rolls, and it becomes more of a luckfest, then a poker tournament.

The idea should be to get the best poker player, not who can roll the dice the best

Jason

[Jeremy]

Man, I would love to, and I have tried to make the ASOP a buy-in event but the problem is that we have to deal with the laws of the jurisdiction in where the event is at.

In a perfect world I would offer freerolls but also a $100 buyin to get in the ASOP, but most of these countries won't allow it.

Even with events ASOP, we cannot advertise cash prizes anywhere.

So for now they have to be all freerolls until we find a country that will allow it.
