Looking for Journalists Interested in Poker

carfax · 2007-09-08 20:54:57

Hi all, I'm looking for as many journalists as possible that might be interested in doing a story on the IPO. In fact not just journalists but anyone involved in the media or involved in a major mainstream website. PM or email please :) stephen@pokerireland.ie

Why don't you send a press release to he newspapers / tv etc. You might get a better response. IMO
Hire yourself a press officer. With a month to go shouldn't cost that much. For an event like this, I think it would be money well spent.

Hi guys,

Thanks for all the help (wasn't expecting that good a response).

I have a press release done up alright, going to send it later today. I have a fair bit of experience with this type of thing so don't think we will hire a press officer but it probably really is a good idea in terms of the amount of available time I have on my hands.

We are taking cash registrations, travelling the country - see this thread; http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055148204

You can also lodge money into my personal bank account, just send me an email - stephen@pokerireland.ie - but I must warn you that there is a €10 processing fee that we cannot get around for cash payments.
