PokerStars Uses Grand Theft Auto To Pimp New Spin And Go’s
Edgy shift in image for the usually clean cut PokerStars.
Update: As expected, this video is no longer (currently) public. Comments have been removed…hope you caught it.
Update #2: The video is back…it’s no longer on the official PokerStars YouTube channel as it once was.
Update #3:Sorry gang, PokerStars shut down the bootleg version of their video under copyright infringement ground. Hope you had a chance to check it out.
Here’s a promo for PokerStars that Sheldon Adelson would love.
In their latest video to promote their new Spin and Go tournaments we enter the world of Grand Theft Auto, where the most heinous things imaginable are commonplace.
Here, the police are happy to overlook speeding, reckless driving, a hit and run and solicitation of prostitution just so they can get their fix of PokerStars brand online poker! It’s that good!
Of course, this could also be a future projection of what New Jersey will soon be like.
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen police officers care more about online poker…remember this filmed incident of the real police playing poker on patrol?
