MULTIPLAYER ONLINE GIN RUMMY DEBUTS
30 November 2007
Global multiple player access to a popular game of
skill
The popular card game Gin Rummy debuts online this week
in multiplayer format on Cyprus-based RM Royal Media
Limited's Rummy Royal.com website, which has been in
operation for some four months (see previous InfoPowa
reports)
The website offers advanced gaming software, reliable
customer service, and a chance to play an all-time
classic card game...now with up to four other players.
Traditional Rummy, the popular Gin Rummy, Oklahoma Rummy
and Kalooki are featured in the skill gaming inventory
at the site.
RM Royal Media claims that more than 27 million people
planet-wide play Rummy in one form or another, making it
the third most popular game in the world. Invented at
the exclusive Knickerbocker Club in New York City, it
later became the game of choice of the Hollywood Elite.
The game was immortalised when playwright D.L. Cockburn
introduced to the stage his Pulitzer Prize winning play,
"The Gin Game" directed by the legendary Mike Nichols
and initially starring the venerable acting couple Hume
Cronyn and Jessica Tandy.
Unlike other card games that are considered games of
chance, Rummy is considered by United States law
enforcement to be a game of skill and is legal
throughout the world, an RM Royal spokesman said. On
February 23, 1965, a Federal judge in Las Vegas ruled
from the bench that Gin Rummy was a skill-based game
after listening to the testimony of prominent players
and statisticians.
Players new to the website or the game can use the free
practice platform at Rummy Royal, and when they feel
sufficiently confident to play for real money, the site
accepts PayPal and all major credit cards. A matchplay
signup bonus maxed at $200 is currently offered.
