I cant imagine this is +EV for the casino... [/ QUOTE ] Well, $28,000 isn't much to pay to get your name plastered all over the internet and the media in general. I have seen this story today on TV, in my newspaper, and on the net. Every story mentions Golden Palace online casino.

[/ QUOTE ] agreed. golden-palace has done some wacky stuff before too. remember the celebrity-boxing on Fox....they were tatooed on the back of one of the contestants (can't remember which one). I think the number of times they were mentioned on CNN and CNN-headline alone was probably worth near $5k to $10k for them. throw in all the mentions on all the other regular and cable networks as well as print media....and then the general gossip of people around the water-cooler, at the blackjack or poker-tables, etc....and I think they got a BARGAIN for their $28k. A 30-second ad on the Super-Bowl costs $1.5 mil I think. they didn't get quite the amount of exposure that one would get with a Super-bowl ad of course.....but for only $28k I think they did pretty darned well.

Is that the virgin mary or is that just the face of a woman?
Also, does anyone have a picture of the virgin mary so we can verify that this is what she looks like.
