I have some news that Blondites may find interesting and hopefully will be pleased about.........Dave Colclough has decided to join DTD as our Poker Ambassador.There is a lot of history behind this so I'll tell you how this has come about, I'd like to be totally clear about tihs due to the "Blondepoker Link".
Dave had been involved in the concept of the Dusk Till Dawn Club, we looked at properties together 18 months ago. However, Blondepoker had gone from strength to strength and DTD was a long away from becoming established, and still is. (if you look at earlier posts in this diary, the club was originally going to be called "The Blondepoker Club" - not "Dusk Till Dawn").
Also,at the time Dave got involved with the Cincinatti Club in Scotland and Blondepoker's plans for their online card room progressed quickly, so DTD remained a separate entity to BP, but we agreed to work together for the benefit of both parties in the future, if DTD ever got off the ground.This is still inteneded to happen when the Club opens in April 2007. I have had a number of conversations with TK and DC over the last 6 months about working together with Blondepoker but delays my end with the licencing has meant DTD is 6 -9 months behind.
Since DC recently decided that he wanted to focus more on his poker career, we have talked about DC's potential involvement with DTD and over the last 4 weeks we have had various discussions on a purley poker related role.
Anyway, today we managed to agree some terms and I wanted to tell people at Blonde first before news came out, also DC wanted me to use the Blonde forum to anounce it. Daves role will be roughly as follows:
1. Represent DTD exclusivley at poker tournamants in UK, Europe and USA
2. PR DTD within all forms of media, online and offline
3. Play at DTD, in the live club and online (under his real name - Full Tilt style)
4. Assist with TV work in the Club
5. Contribute regulary to the the DTD web site with articles and poker blog
6. Questions & Answers to DTD players, live and online
7. Help build the "Big Cash Game" in the live club using his contacts (Bellagio Style)
8. Promote DTD to high profile players accross the world (hopefully get them to come over)
9. Use his contacts in poker to benefit DTD as needed
10.Generate plays for DTD, live and online
Some good people getting involved with DTD as we get closer to our opening date...........
