Happy New Year! Please read this important announcement. Poker needs you!

2008 will be a critical year for poker. The success and momentum we built
together in 2007 must continue into a more vocal and mobilized grassroots
efforts this year. We cannot move forward without broad support and active
involvement from our members. With that in mind, I am pleased to extend to you
an invitation to become a State Director for the Poker Players Alliance.

Under this provision, violators will be subject to a maximum term of 2 years in the house of correction, a fine of $25,000, or both.
