Following the release of Brad Furman film Runner Runner, a movie exploring the lavish culture of online gambling, the team at Jackpot 247 have looked into how the industry is increasingly portrayed within the media.
The crime thriller movie follows main character Ritchie (played by Justin Timberlake) as he attempts to pay his tuition fees using his exceptional poker skills in online gambling. However he loses all his money to a cheater, something which he is later able to prove with statistics. Speaking about his involvement in the film, Timberlake claims much of his enjoyment comes from doing a movie “about something that was happening right now.” The singer-turned actor also stated that “I didn’t realise that online gaming was so huge.”
Jackpot 247 is best known for providing its users with authentic online casino games online on desktop and on mobile. Heavily involved within the industry for a number of years, the specialists take a keen interest in the way online gambling is represented in the media, including the world of cinema. A representative shares their thoughts on the subject.
“We are seeing more films and television dramas focused around the subject of internet gambling, reflecting just how popular and widespread it has become. Thankfully unlike the antagonist of this recent film, here at Jackpot 247 we operate entirely ethically, with theft-proof transactions. The fact that our games are powered by the world’s leading online gaming operator, PlayTech and tested by TST, an independent tester of casino software, is also very reassuring to our customers.”
