How do you rate your odds against a World Poker Tour host? Players at Hollywood Poker have been rubbing shoulders with WPT veterans and silver screen stars for over six years, however few have been as prolific as their current pseudo-hosts. Spokesman Vince Van Patten is an endorsing entity for OnGame Network's biggest poker brand, and alongside notorious “Casino” actor James Woods, hosts regular Celebrity Bounty tournaments for six figure prizes. Launched in 2004 by Gibraltar commissioned Vista Global Ltd, Hollywood Poker quickly established itself as a platform where lucrative prizes weren't just a perk for seasoned players. Microstakes games are a welcome inclusion for poker novices and Hollywood Poker School is a must if you fancy your chances at Celebrity Knockout!

Licensed by the Gibraltar Gambling Commissioner, Hollywood Poker welcomes citizens of the EU with industry competitive initial sign-up bonuses and a rewards scheme quite unlike any other. Registrations are no longer accepted by OnGame from US citizens, however, sign-ups from Canada and some outlying territories are not prohibited. Player traffic from the OnGame Network has prompted Vista Global to modify their site several times since its inception, with marked improvements continuing to be made to both site reach and security. Bundled with innovative player features such as mini-view, statistics tabs and short-hand tools, the new P-5 software is a welcome advancement, complimented by category-specific menus and plenty of inter-game shortcuts.

With a strong European player base, Hollywood's enhanced P-5 Poker Software now caters for over 17 nationalities, available in English, French and Spanish, as well as Suomi, Svenska and Dutch. Default currencies are currently limited to Euros, US Dollars, Pounds Sterling and Canadian Dollars, but this is no setback if you opt for one of the fifty e-payment mediums such as Neteller, PaySafe or ClickandBuy. Featuring sophisticated 128-bit SSL encryption, all transactions remain completely secure, regardless of payment method.
