NextShooter.com completely overhauled

NextShooter.com changes partners

The site redesign mentioned above is the work of Michael Bluejay, owner of GamblingAds.com and VegasReference.com, who recently replaced Cenicola-Helvin (Las Vegas, Nevada) as the Bone Man's partner in NextShooter. The change in partners was completely amicable, and allows C-H to focus better on its primary business, developing and marketing its hosting and content management systems. The Bone Man, founder and author of the site and craps dealer on the world famous Las Vegas Strip, stated his many thanks to Mark Cenicola, President and Jeff Helvin, Vice President of C/H for their many contributions to the growth and visibility of the site from their initial agreement in 2002 to date.
