DNA Benefits
The main objective of The Drop N Aces (DNA) Poker League is to provide participating establishments with a
popular venue (Texas Hold'em Tournament) on their slower nights. Instead of hiring a Live Band, DJ,
or Karaoke Company to try and draw in more business, an establishment can contract DNA to come in for
one or more nights a week. In most cases, DNA will actually cost less to hire than the usual entertainment
alternative.
The Drop N Aces Poker League provides proven large draw in crowds based on establishment capacity for
special events as well as providing a continuous/regular customer base. In addition, the circuit based
tournament system promotes diversification, assisting in marketing to players who otherwise would not consider
utilizing the establishment's services due to prior personal perception, traveling distance, or venue. This in return
acts as low cost advertising and marketing for participating locations.
Accessibility of free No Limit Texas Hold'em tournaments for the general public and players of all skill levels
is a primary goal. Nowhere is it said that players need to "gamble" anything of value in order to compete, have
fun like the professionals, and win great prizes!
DNA member players benefit by having an affiliation with an on-line poker training site. It's one of the newest premier on-line poker tournament and training sites.

Following his departure from l.e.a.d.s.online, John continued to work closely with law enforcement agencies to help define additional needs and develop technologies that addressed those concerns.
