New Underground Poker Doc

Wednesday, 1 October 2014

Forget New York, Texas or Los Angeles. The capital of underground poker in America is Chicago according to a new proposed new reality TV show.

The brainchild of director Dan Bekavac, the new show aims to lift the lid on the poker scene in America's second city.

“We plan on making 8 episodes in the first season using the characters from the sizzle reel,” said Bekavac. “We will be expanding on the sizzle reel to include other aspects of poker players and game runners lives. Things like prop bets, the weird things we do as poker players, how we live, what we do, and professional poker players giving advice and tips in each episode on how to become a better player.”

The film's makers are looking for backing via Kickstarter.com with pledges starting from just $10.

Take a look at the sizzle reel below.
