BODY:
The Poker Players Alliance has announced an April 12th webcast with new PPA<br>Chairman of the Board Al D&#39;Amato, the former New York senator now serving as<br>the PPA&#39;s public face. The 3:00 pm EST webcast is open to all PPA members,<br>with free registration available on the PPA site for those not already<br>signed up with organization. According to the latest release, PPA membership<br>has more than doubled in the past two months to over 320,000, well on track<br>toward the group&#39;s often stated million-member goal. The D&#39;Amato chat is<br>billed as a chance for listeners to hear the latest from D&#39;Amato and the PPA<br>on the &#39;future of poker,&#39; with the former senator and now-PPA lobbyist<br>providing a general update on  the issues facing the game and how the PPA is<br>working on players&#39; behalf.
