Some people walk the 'Walk (the Atlantic City Boardwalk, that is), some people talk the talk…and now you can listen to the talk as you walk. The Atlantic City Convention & Visitors Authority (ACCVA) has turned the popular Boardwalk Walking Tour into a downloadable podcast for visitors to listen to as they stroll the famous wooden way. A video version is also available for those who prefer to watch from their favorite Boardwalk bench or the comfort of their own home.

The podcast, produced by Dynamic Advertising and Design of Galloway Township, is the first in a series of four scheduled to go online this year at the ACCVA's Web site, www.atlanticcitynj.com.

The tour starts at the North end of Atlantic City and points out current sites as well as sites of historical significance as you travel south. The narration also provides interesting facts about some of the "firsts" that made Atlantic City famous.

"Atlantic City has a history that has touched many people, such as memories of the diving horse and the World War II days when the military used Atlantic City's hotels and facilities for training," said Jeff Vasser, executive director of the ACCVA. "Baby boomers remember it from their childhood, and many of our parents or grandparents met, married or honeymooned here. This tour helps keep that heritage alive."

The Boardwalk Walking Tour has been available online as a printable guide since last spring. "Now, it's even easier to follow the tour when you download the podcast and listen while you walk," said Vasser. Vasser notes that use of the technology is designed to enhance the experience for Atlantic City's visitors. "We continually strive for new ways to promote Atlantic City, and the use of social media such as this allows us to engage our visitors in innovate and interactive ways," he said.

The printable version, the video version accompanied by audio and the downloadable podcast format are all available by clicking on the Boardwalk Walking Tour button on the home page of the ACCVA's Web site, www.atlanticcitynj.com.

For the uninitiated traveler, this time of year at gaming resort towns there's a buzz in the air that can mean only one thing: WSOP. In otherwords, The World Series of Poker.

The WSOP this year is the 39th annual poker tournament of all poker tournaments, and all levels of players are having their daydreams of winning 'the big one'. How big? Well in 2006 the winner, Jamie Gold, out-lasted 8773 other players to win a $12 million prize. Not bad for playing poker.

Every year in May, and this year's no exception, the big push gets underway for hopeful players to make it onto the final table. This year's big day for the WSOP is a little different than in years past. This year the WSOP of poker is actually taking a four month break right before the final table play, which will be held on November 9th and 10th. From May to July there are a whole host of different poker games players can join, and if they make it to a certain level, land a seat in the main event which runs from July 3rd to July 14th.

For the full schedule of events check here.

Also different this year is a very large charity poker event to benefit the Darfur region in Sudan, Africa. While charity poker games have long since been a way to raise big money for worthy events, this year's event, Ante Up For Africa, is looking to be the biggest poker charity event of all time.

For more information on Ante Up For Africa check here.

So if you ever had the daydream of being the big winner of the largest poker tournament of the planet, or just like to play some slot machines and watch high-rollers bet tens of thousands of dollars a hand at poker, May through July is the time to hit such gambling meccas as Las Vegas and Atlantic City.
