Flushed With
Success
A
new glossy magazine aimed at online casino and poker room
players is about to hit UK news-stands. We look at what to
expect from Flush.
It's glossy, it's
glamorous and it claims to be "the magazine your eyes should
be on" - Flush will go on sale across the UK early next
month.
According to Production
director, Robert Dillon, Flush is aimed 'squarely at online
gamblers of all standards and levels of experience', and
intended to appeal to women as much as to men. Its editorial
content promises a mix of features, articles and interviews,
as well as exclusive competitions.
Its main focus will be
online casino and poker room gambling, but it also intends
to cater for readers with an interest in sport and in sports
betting, so a proportion of the content will be in this
area.
Among the magazine's
backers is boxing promoter and snooker impresario Barry
Hearn, owner of sports management company Matchroom Sport.
Hints from the editorial team suggest that the flamboyant
promoter will contribute to the magazine from time to
time.
Although there will be
plenty of interest to the seasoned gamer, one of the main
aims of the early issues will be to promote online gaming to
newcomers, and to those who have been tempted to start, but
haven't yet taken the plunge.
Production director Robin
Dillon says: "We want to be there for people who are not yet
playing. We know that most people are aware of the
possibility of playing online, but not everyone is sure how
to do it.
"We want to say to them
it's easy, safe and secure."
Read &
Learn
Early issues will have a
strong tutorial aspect to them, with guides to show new
players how to get started, how to deposit and withdraw
money, and how to play various games such as roulette, poker
and blackjack.
But there will also be
plenty about the glamour of the games: "We want to be
interesting and informative and light-hearted," says
Dillon.
There will be articles
about, and interviews with, celebrity players, as well as
fun features such as a history of gambling in the movies.
Regular casinotimes.co.uk readers will, of course, already
know all about this from our series on the
subject.
Flush will be full colour
throughout, and printed on high-quality glossy A4 paper. The
first issue, containing 115 pages, will be out on 6
October.
The first three issues,
all at a special introductory price of 99p, will be
exclusively available from WHSmith, although you'll also be
able to pick up copies from land-based casinos, four- and
five-star hotels, private members' clubs, gate services and
first-class or diamond business lounges. Subscriptions will
also soon be available.
