That is interesting as any referenced to POKER is now seen as a game of chance.
Gambling Commission Document 14/12/09

A GAME OF CHANCE
The manner in which a game is presented includes not only the game title and/or the way in which it is described on the machines livery but also how the game is itself presented to the player. A business cannot therefore avoid AMLD or restrictions on where machines can be sited by just changing the game title or the manner in which it is described. They would also have to change the way the game is presented as involving an element of chance.[/b]

The key line in that quote is...
A business cannot therefore avoid AMLD or restrictions on where machines can be sited by just changing the game title or the manner in which it is described. They would also have to change the way the game is presented as involving an element of chance
So Skill Ball Bingo could not just be renamed Skill Ball Bongo and be re-released, they would need to redesign the game.

The game Poker face has nothing to do with the card game Poker, it has no Poker iconography. So I would doubt it would be excluded just because of its name which is a common expression to describe "a visage lacking any expression that can be interpreted".

Poker Face - Has anyone ever actually seen this TV show? There was an AWP game of the same name, too.

PS: Sorry for the title change, let me know if you want it changed back (thought it was a great phrase as stated above!) :)

Does this mean we'll get lots of games like roullade, Blackjock, crabs and sluts?
