Grab the popcorn for this episode of iGaming Daily, supported by Optimove, as Steve Hoare, Editor of the Player Protection Hub, talks to Elliott Gerner about his new short film Friday Night Flop, which explores the world of poker through a mother-daughter relationship.

The duo discuss the film’s origins, its debut at the UK Jewish Film Festival and the future plans for distribution as film festival season begins. They also talk about Elliott’s own journey from playing card games at his grandparent's house to online poker.

The discussion also touches on the argument of poker being a game of skill rather than gambling, which is a theme explored during the film and has also featured in a number of court cases involving online poker, including the one that led to the shutdown of Pokerstars on ‘Black Friday’ 2011.
