Today or tomorrow we'll release a pre-register page for the poker room. As far as I know, this will be the only legal way for US players to play for cash (of course they'll have to jump through some hoops to exchange cash for Credits, but hopefully we can make this easier in time). Any suggestions that you guys have regarding marketing to former FullTilt/Pokerstars players? I've talked to some people at my college's unofficial poker club, and they're pretty hype about it.

By FAR the easiest way to attract them, is to make it relatively easy to exchange BTC/Cash for credits. Crypto Currency is intimidating for new comers who have little interest in it. Poker players aren't in it for speculation, they just want to hop in and play. At bare minimum, eventually there needs to be a way in house to exchange BTC for Cr on the fly. I know there's a ton of technical issues there. But people who aren't interested in Crypto aren't going to buy BTC, setup a BTC wallet, sign up for one of the exchanges, figure out how to use it to exchange for CR, setup a Cr wallet, send the CR to the poker site, gamble, then complete the exact process in reverse when they're done.

This being said, people who understand already how to do it will be all over this. Especially when it becomes a full Casino, completely with Casino merchandise? (Mugs, shirts, etc.)
