Participants will gain knowledge in specific safety tools used in games on streams and at tables around the world. Discussions will center on the strengths and uses of potential tools, so participants can choose the correct fit for their games and players. And I could ask Tom as well as– he came last year on my recommendation, and he’s more likely to visit again if I mention this and ask.
