The poker affiliates and operators are having the inaugural Poker Conference in Limassol, Cyprus this year, and it looks set to become and annual event. So my question to you guys is this:

Seeing as the Casino Affiliates Conferences are regularly attended by affiliates representing all major products, do you think it's time for a dedicated casino conference, with a completely casino dedicated agenda, etc, and more importantly, would you attend?

There are multiple selections to be made, so choose those relevant to you:

There really are enough already. Especially now, that they are all held far from the US, the constant travel gets to be a nuisance.

Once they come back to Vegas I'll be happy to attend them all. As is 3 or 4 a year are as much as I can do. While it's fun to be there, travelling there is time consuming and unpleasant. And most of all, it disrupts work for a couple of weeks each time.

Conferences are useful and poductive in their own right, but there is a limit to the time and money I am willing to spend on attending them.

Perhaps the better question would have been something along the lines of: who thinks current conferences are too generalised across gambling products, and should be re-thought in the style of the poker conference...

Well, yes, It would be a good thing to have Poker, Casino, Bingo and Sportsbetting apart.

But not if it results in more and more travel, there is a natural limit to how much one can travel while still running a business.

I promote everything but sportsbetting, so I would be running all over the globe...

I'd probably go if it was in a decent place as I love going to the conferences, but being casino-specific doesn't really worry me...I like to keep up with what's happening in Poker, Skill games and Bingo.

We promote everything but sportsbooks as well and it would be too much travel to hit up each individual conference, unless of course it was close to home.

I really don't see why some of these conferences can't fall under one roof. Sure poker could be represented in one area but I don't think that needs to be the case. Logistically I think it would make sense to try to add them up to 1 main conference but I haven't seen the evolution of these conferences so it is tough for me to judge where I think they should change or improve.

We find it more cost effective for the sponsors and attendees to have a multi faceted show. We have 3 major shows, 2 regional events and our annual spring break scheduled for 2009. We also have two poker conferences planned for 2009. If you add in ICE and G2E then you have more then enough high quality events to attend. There is a limit to how much travel people are willing to do in a year.

I also think the existing conferences for me as a European citizen are enough (London, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Moscow), but I would love to have an extra day for each. There are always so many people I need and want to talk to, but the time is simply not enough.
Is that just me or am I correct?
