Film Release in Asia means Influx of Online Poker Players Enjoying Rakeback


Asia is about to go poker crazy as a new movie has just premiered in Hong Kong that will be sure to take the cinemas by storm. Texas Hold’em Poker, which is already seeing a worldwide increase in players, is sure to get a lot of new fans through the movie release.

The story is set in Asia and is the tale of two poker playing rivals that are competing in the same competition for the crown.

The film was shot in the well known Asian casino capital of Macau and already it has caused quite a stir due to the number of players arriving in the city during the APT Macau Festival last August while the film was being shot. The film was not short of willing extras as it would appear that poker players arrived just to see if they could get a place on set to star in the movie.

Texas Hold‘em has already seen an increase in popularity thanks to the world of online gaming where players can compete from all over the globe. It would now seem that it is going to have a huge impact on the poker scene not only in Hong Kong, but other Asian cities as well.

The Film premiered with a star studded audience and the stars Louis Koo and Lau Ching-Wan also attended. Actor Louis Koo said, “This game is very popular in the West. Perhaps it is only just starting to take off in Asia. New mannerisms and skills had to be learnt from players outside Hong Kong.”

We can’t wait to see this movie and hope that it will soon be on release in the West. It will be curious to see how the game is received by the Eastern players as it is such a relatively new game to them!

I wonder how long it will be before the Eastern players catch up with us Westerners with playing online party poker rakeback and PKR Poker Rakeback?.  I bet they can’t wait to get their hands on some brilliant rakeback deals.
