Message:
Please appraise the domain 'puertopoker.com'. Obviously puerto is short for Puerto Rico, an extremely popular gambling destination.

The term 'puerto poker' brings 4,480,000 results in Google: http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=Puerto+Poker&btnG=Search&meta=

In May 2006, there were 2184747 searches for the term 'poker' and 240 for 'puerto', although 6391 for 'puerto rico' - puertoricopoker.com wouldn't be anywhere near as appealing.

Also, I think the fact that each of the two words begins with the letter 'p' makes the domain more catchy and easy to remember.

'poker' also has a similar sound to it as 'rico' - both ending with a similar sound, each with two syllables. I know this isn't really important, but hey.

Also, is it worth contacting Puerto Rico casinos to see whether they'd be interested? What would be the best way to go about doing this?

Please e-mail 'sjm900[at]gmail.com' if interested or are willing to help me take the next step(s) - I need it! Thanks guys.

"puerto poker" has 191 on google so while it isnt a popular term i would agree it is catchy and might bring in xxx to someone who is only looking for a catchy poker name especially a game in puerto rico
good luck

Thanks - but when I search 'Puerto Poker', there are 4,480,000 results - a bit more than 191! I don't see what you mean.

I've e-mailed a few casinos a month or so ago regarding potentially selling the name, but I got no reply from any. Perhaps they didn't get through? Half the websites didn't even have an e-mail address on display, and I had to end up using dodgy contact forms. Can you recommend anywhere to locate potential end users?
