Just one quickly on ClubWPT, I think you have said 15,000 subscribers of which 1,000 were trials. We have got 14,000 game subscribers. Is that correct?
Steven Lipscomb
It is.
Clint Morrison - Feltl & Company
Okay. And then you gave another number as to how many freeplay subscribers you had?
Steven Lipscomb
It has 138,000.
Clint Morrison - Feltl & Company
Okay. And as that there are people who have whatever signed and done to play it all or what does that really mean?
Steven Lipscomb
It is part of the phenomenon of online poker generally and that is that you always have this robust group of people who will play for free and sometimes convert and oftentimes not. So, what I think it underscores for most when we look at the business is they are really two potential businesses here. One of them is kind of an ?advertainment’ model where we might be able to monetize those people because there are eyeballs, unlike many places on the web that stay there for a long periods of time. We have not begun to actually monetize that piece of it but I think it is important to realize the kind of the building community is beyond the 15,000.
The reason we say that the trials, if everybody who signs on for ClubWPT signs on with the two-week trial. That was just kind of a part of keeping up and it is actually as a truer number to understand how many people have said, ?Hey, I am going to sign up and pay.?
So, the 14,000, 15,000 number is important but there is a broader group of people. They are actually not just signed up but actually play. So, you see a robust number of people playing.

Okay. And I think you indicated that the Fox was continuing to re-run the television series and obviously that is hoping to drive people to you. What is their expectation or how long do you think that and they will continue to be on the air and benefit you?
Steven Lipscomb
Well, we are with them working. Again, it is one of those things that you... it is always hard to say we are going to give half of the business to someone. On the other hand, we need this kind of partner. There are a lot of possibilities.
