Introduction to The Poker Face

The first thing one notices after starting the book is the stellar prose. And a tantalizing plot that has been woven by this young author. It is hard to believe that he had not written a word before he was 27. But his natural talent cannot be ignored and it’s only on the horizon in terms of what we can expect from this future master novelist. The story of the book is set in a futuristic setting where the world is largely urbanized. And where high-rise offices and apartments are the order of the day. The main character, Fuzzy, is also an aspiring game designer who lives in an apartment complex called Shaker Heights. He works at Tustin Designs, a company that produces adult-themed interactive games.

The storyline of The Poker Face

The storyline of The Poker Face is about a woman who has made a living with poker. She’s been in the game for a while, while her peers are still trying to learn. One day, she learns that there is a new poker game called Texas Hold’Em which everyone is playing “The House,” and that it’s changing the game forever. Now with all her competition gone, she can finally make enough money to leave behind this life of rudeness and roughness. She does, but now she’s back in her game, and she begins to remember how much she loved it. She remembers the thrill of making a good hand, the rush of adrenaline when you gamble your money away, and more. The man who taught her everything he knows tries to convince her not to go back into the poker game again (he says that they are ruthless now). But this tough woman convinces him that she can handle it. After winning some games, everyone has high hopes for her.

Rian Johnson’s Poker Face has added Simon Helberg to its cast

Actor Simon Helberg will star as a “dangerous and charismatic mob boss” in the film remake of the popular 2006 poker movie. The film follows Tyler, a high-stakes poker player who was once “the biggest player on the planet.” His gambling addiction leads him down a path of deceit and manipulation, but he’s pulled back into the game when he meets someone with nothing to lose. Poker Face is due out later this year. Helberg, best known for his role as Howard Wolowitz on the sitcom “The Big Bang Theory,” will play the role of a “dangerous and charismatic mob boss.”I have always wanted to be in a poker movie, and I was thrilled when I heard that Amanda Seyfried was interested in playing the lead,” Helberg said in a press release. “She’s such an attractive woman and incredibly talented, so I knew I’d have plenty of competition.
