Gay Poker is here - no joke
 

Anyone seen this yet?

http://www.comeoutpoker.com/index.php

No affiliate program as of yet but the question is, would you promote it? I don't think the mainstream poker news/info sites are a good place to promote it anyway. Although the gay/lesbian dating sites would be a good start (think people chatting, etc).

I personally think it's too narrow of a niche. If I were gay I wouldn't really care if I played against other gay players. I'd be looking for the same thing as any other player, good games, graphics, support, etc...

Also, it's interesting to note that they have a new HoldEm game where "Straights" don't count!

Now that's funny!

I wonder what at Q -3 is called on that site. LOL. Hmmm.

a niche site too far ??
 

hi

think you hit the nail on the head - don't see why anyone of any sex preference is going to want to play poker in an exclusive poker site to their group

I'm vegetarian but I can't see much of a market for www.tofupoker.com catering just for veggies and vegan poker players ... maybe im wrong but

being gay or veggie or voting green or being lefthanded doesn't seem to have much point or niche in the poker arena

ok so firemen & women is a niche or football fans - but that makes sense and doesn't exclude any minority groups

Personally I wonder how long it will take before all the gay haters (think about the bigotry in poker chat boxes) decide to hound innocent players who join a site clearly marking themselves out based as gay - I think they're going to have there work cut out

off to set up the www.greenlefthandedmungbeanpoker.com just in case

cheers scrawnybob

Straight waiter :)

"Not that there's anything wrong with that" :) - for you Seinfeld fans

I live 10 mins away from San Fran right now, if they launch an Affiliate Program...mass offline marketing blitz :)

When I was starting out, my friend and I joked about doing a gay niche kind of poker site, but suprisingly all the good domain names were taken so we never did it. Also, since neither of us are gay it would be pretty akward to tell people the name of your site.

my wife laughs out loud at the idea of "Coming out Holdem" where straights don't count. or is it "No Straights Allowed"?

whatever, she just thinks that's both creative, and downright funny.

LOL you need a new name for "im all in" :p
