Poker Documentary All In: The Poker Movie
The poker craze that has taken the world by storm is the subject of a new documentary, "All In: The Poker Movie," that premiered in Las Vegas earlier in June. Directed by Douglas Tirola, the documentary explores the poker renaissance. One part of the movie looks into the 2006 Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act and the effect that law has had on poker in the United States. One hundred and thirty people are interviewed in the movie, including poker professional such as Scotty Nguyen, Joe Hachem and Phil Hellmuth, and celebrity poker players like Jennifer Tilly and Matt Damon.
The 98-minute film premiered at the 2009 CineVegas Film
