ONLINE GAMBLING AND CASINO GUIDE

If You Can’t Be a Star, Bust One

Hollywood is the place where celebrities work, and Hollywood Poker is the place where they spend their spare time. At least some of them, such as Jon Favreau, Tom McGowan, Dennis Quaid, and Mimi Rogers. James Woods and Vince Van Patten are regulars and both keep poker blogs at the site.

Dear readers, we hope you have noticed that casinoguide.com now promotes a new online poker room: HollywoodPoker.com

Hollywood Poker features something as unusual as progressive Celebrity Bounties! This means, for each celebrity you eliminate from a tournament, you receive increasing amounts of cash. $25 is paid out for your first celebrity and $500 for the second. If you take out a third celebrity, you win an instant $2,500 plus, if that celebrity is James Woods, Vince Van Patten or any of the Celebrity Tournament’s Celebrity Hosts, you win a place in the WSOP satellite. But it doesn’t end there: Busting a fourth celebrity takes you straight to the WSOP main event!

Apparently, the people behind Hollywood Poker have understood that poker is not all about money. Having fun has its own value, as we discussed in an earlier blog post. With their celebrity program, merchandise bonuses, a truly valuable online magazine and more, Hollywood Poker adds a lot of value to their users by creating a strong culture around the game.
