Aces.com Hosts Hollywood Movie Premiere

Tournament & contest winners to get all-expense-paid trips to star-studded L.A. gala

Culminating a summer of special tournaments, prizes and parties, Aces.com will host a gala Movie Premiere Party in Hollywood October 7th to celebrate the release of ACES the Movie, the sexy new poker movie sponsored by the retro-Vegas-style online casino. Tournament and contest winners will win all-expense-paid trips to the party, and hundreds of L.A. area Aces.com players will be invited to join the director and cast at Vanguard Hollywood, one of the biggest dance clubs in Los Angeles. Organized by Hollywood party producer Alex Quinn, this Aces party is sure to be an A-list crowd.

ACES the Movie, from Rolling Stones video director Daniel Zirilli, is the story of three sexy college girls that take a high tech cheating scheme to the underground card rooms of Las Vegas. It will be released on DVD by Warner Brothers October 3rd but new players registering at Aces.com will receive a free copy.

In all, five lucky players will win an all-expense paid trip to the gala movie premiere. Two party prize packages were awarded to Wednesday Night Free Roll Tournament winners in July and another two will be awarded September 13th and 20th. The winner of the Three-Card Poker Tournament September 11 – 18 will also win airfare and accommodation to attend the event.

“It’s an incredible time for Aces.com – with the movie and the new re-designed site, we’re really in the mood to celebrate!” said Rene Quesada Manager of the long-established site that recently underwent a total makeover. “We’ve had a lot of fun with the girls from the movie – hosting our online tournaments and making special appearances at the WSOP last month. It’ll be great to have them all together again in Hollywood!”

Alex Quinn, son of Oscar-winner Anthony Quinn, is known for throwing exclusive invitation-only Hollywood parties.

"What Alex Quinn has done so far is beyond FAB,” says Courtenay Semel, daughter of Yahoo CEO Terry Semel and Quinn’s cohort on the E! reality show ‘Filthy Rich: Cattle Drive’. “His parties are glam and chic, not to mention filled with hotness. They're only going to become more exclusive and the talk of the town. AQ Presents = tres sass to the millionth degree."

The cavernous 20,000 square foot Vanguard Hollywood is one of L.A.’s biggest, trendiest dance clubs – the most technologically advanced and sophisticatedly designed venue in the United States. One Hollywood party-scene blogger says it has a “…frightening mofo light and FX rig on ceiling! Massive sound system that will actually compress your brain with avalanches of bass!”
