Affiliate Summit Gambler
I’ll quickly introduce myself, my name is Chris Vassell and I am 22 years of age. Go to college and play football for the UTEP Miners. I am proud to say that our team got destroyed by the national championship contenders, Texas Longhorns, 64-7.
Why Should I Win?
I’m pretty cool and cool people should go to Vegas. Here’s a shocker, I’ve never been to Las Vegas. Second of all, chillin with a buncha guys that are already successful on what I’ve worked so hard to accomplish would be an absolute honor.
I’ve been doing this online thing for about 2 and a half years, but of course the athletic/academic life is tough, and being a walk-on (non scholarship athlete), definitely constrains time as you have to work for immediate cash (part time job). Hanging around you guys alone would be great, that’s worth the trip alone, that’s the honest truth.
$1000 or $2000 –
We go to Vegas to have fun, but not too much fun “Remember, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Except for herpes. That s***’ll come back with you” – Sid Garner. With that being said, I’m going to go for the kill, $2,000 and use the bet on black jack (I like controlling my destiny a little) and if I win, I’m going to use it to finance my dreams, most specifically internet marketing.

You're somethin Like a bad body double, YOU CAN'T STUNT LIKE THIS!
I mean, I’ll do charity, but definitely in the future; right now, $4,000 can jump start many things such as PPC (I’m still on SEO and article marketing), and can invest a good amount of money for jump starting the online portions of some of my family member’s businesses. That’s assuming there is a win, when it comes to gambling, you hope for the best but assume the worst.
The Judges = Characters in the Hangover
Well, since we’re talking Las Vegas, it’s only appropriate that I compare the guys to the Hangover characters
Jeremy “Shoemoney” Schoemaker – The Baby, Why the baby? Well the baby has a lot of swag in the movie, “baby boy with the glasses”, not to mention he finds himself in very random situations; If you were to go to shoemoney’s blog you’d see a lot of random stuff, on things you’d never expect – like “how do you get yourself in that situation?”, but it works, the blog is great.
David Dellanave - Is just as hard to find as Doug Billings, he does not post on his blog too often, but like Doug when he is on the scene, he does some significant stuff. Check out his post on how to split test using WordPress, it’s something that can definitely come in handy for you PPC’ers out there, more specificially myself.
NickyCakes (almost reformed blackhat) – Mike Tyson; The only thing that could stack up with Mike Tyson would be a blog that was unpredictable and a little crazy, yet important – that would be NickyCakes. Especially as it was mentioned, he was a reformed blackhat – crazy lifestyle, with crazy good results. “Where the Hell is my tiger?”
Erin Hughes (AzoogleAds AM) – As an affiliate manager she has a pretty important job, which includes helping affiliate get sales. What does that have to do with a tiger? Sometimes you have to have a tiger in the house to push you out of your comfort zone.
George Avery (Get Ads) – Mr. Chow ; He knows how to get his money, has a knack for it, and can find a way to get past obstacles just like Mr. Chow was able to get out of the trunk. It’s hard to be a CEO for a company, it’s not easy task; you do come across a lot of problems, hopefully one day I’ll be the head man like Mr. Chow and George.
Neil Patel – Phil Wenneck, one of the guys who takes a leader role, will usually stay calm and tell it to you like it is, the only thing on his blog is lot’s of info and the simple truth, doing certain things will get you broke, and others will make you rich, check out his blog, more than impressed with it.
Barman – Mike Epps, Doug – His website is both intelligent and funny, you can go from great marketing ideas to hundreds of pictures of random females smoking weed, just like Mike Epps, unpredictable and funny.

My name is Chris and I work online pretty much full time and hold guitars.
