2006 WSOP Main Event Champion Jamie Gold to Speak at the CAP Euro Barcelona

The 2006 world series of poker Main Event Champion Jamie Gold will be the main speaker at the CAP Euro Barcelona, the 4th Casino Affiliate Programs European conference, taking place from September 25th, 2008 until September 28th, 2008 in Barcelona, Spain. Aside from giving the keynote speech at the CAP Euro Barcelona, Gold will also held a coaching session for the Affiliate Series of Poker qualifiers.

Gold said that there is absolutely no doubt that the growth of poker all over the world is mainly connected with the growth and immense success of online poker all over the world. He added that as well as making poker easily accessible to players all over the world, it also has taken poker to new heights and has fueled the global exposure of poker through mainstream television sponsorship and along the way provided different game play and strategy.

Gold said that it has turned poker into a back-room game into a front room game and a "recession proof" world wide industry. He added that as the one fortunate enough to receive the biggest payout in poker history, it would be remiss of him not to explain the dramatic effect of Internet poker has on major poker events, poker players and the cash prize.

The last CAP conference, held in London in January, attracted around one thousand visitors and forty-five exhibitors, in what CAP Euro describes was the biggest gathering of affiliates in the iGaming sector.
