6 5 4 in the industry, one of the funniest, and on top of it all, he is a gangsta. I have a piece of advice for you – if you are having a bad day, if you need a good laugh, if you generally need to smile, please contact Carlo. He’s hilarious, I adore him, and so will you. Word. 5 David Sack Affiliate Program Manger, Fortune Affiliates “HOWZIT!” “Yip”. “Tequila!” These are the words that come to mind when I think of the one, the only, and South Africa’s very finest, David Sack. I have been treated to many five star restaurants throughout my travels, and somehow…some way…David has been present for each and every (Kosher) meal. This lovely individual is also responsible for introducing me to the wonderful world of tequila shots with lime juice- I do believe my nightlife activities are now 10-times more fun. All fun and games aside, David is one of the most knowledgeable, respected, and connected individuals in the online gaming industry. New law passed? Payment processor closed down? Love affair? Ask David. He will know the answer. 4 Danielle Taylor Affiliate Manager, Chipleader Affiliates Where do I even start with this one?! Danielle is one of the most beautiful people I have ever met, inside and out, and she is one of the best affiliate managers in the business. We are talking long lost sister, best friend from a past life, my secret lover, whatever. She is FABULOUS! We have even spent a weekend together on a deserted beach in Costa Rica…well, along with two crazy Swedes, our friend Heather, and about 19 bottles of booze. Oh, it was ugly. But I love her. 3 Tomas Eliasson Affiliate Manager, Poker Host Tomas is one of my favorite affiliate managers in the business. He has become a great friend, he is beyond fun, and most importantly, he is Swedish. I love the Swedes. Såja. I enjoy Tomas’s company to such an extent that I have literally taken a cab straight to his place so I can drag him out with me. Why didn’t I call him? Well, he does live in Costa Rica and the entire country is maxed out with cell phone numbers. Come on, that should have been obvious! 2 Warren Jacobs Head of Media at Trafficsales, Marketing Arm of Euro Partners He is Scottish. He was highly ranked in the Israeli army. He is very sarcastic and entertaining. He would rather read a book than take tequila shots with industry idiots, and he loves sharing a hotel room with Daniel from Euro Partners. We are talking about Warren Jacobs from Traffic Sales, one of my all time favorite people in this industry. Warren is not an extreme extroverted socialite like the majority of us, but sit next to him at lunch and you will not stop laughing. Call him up on the phone and you will not understand a word that he is saying. Thenk ye. Guid cheerio the nou. 1 Michael Caselli Editor in Chief, Lyceum Publishing We do business together, he treats me well, he treats Michael Corfman well, he was number one on Jenny Woo’s “To Do List”, and his picture appears in every online gaming magazine in existence, so WHY CAN’T IT BE IN THIS ONE TOO? For those of you who do not know Mr. Caselli, stop what you are doing and introduce yourself to him right now. This is one individual with a passion for life, a solid work ethic, boundless energy, an outrageous sense of humor, an instigator of late night celebrations at conferences, and best of all, he has long, flowing, curly dark hair. What is not to love? Nothing! I love him. 2 1 3
