ridgerama, what's this "colon" thing , I’ve looked all over the US store at this game and can't see what your on about.
Having said that I can see the colon, in the name but nothing that suggests that it will not work in the UK, work appreciate you explaining
Thanks

Thanks | He means that people will misread the title as 'Strip Poker' instead of '... Vegas Strip: Poker' - i.e. that people will expect computer nudity.
I bought this game from the US store, and it works offline. I haven't tried online. To be honest, I'm just using it to learn how to actually play the game - not ready to lose my simulated money online yet. Can't even beat the computer on Amateur level - I'm just too impatient.

I saw the title and for we were travelling back in time to the Commadore 64 "Strip Poker" days.
Nice placement of the colon - cheap marketing trick that - get the teenagers interested.

OK, I just went into online play, selected a table (only four games available at the moment - but I guess it is early in the USA) and entered the game. I didn't actually stay to play as I'm still trying to learn the rules, but it did seem to work OK. I saw the others finishing their hand, looked at the avatars, etc.
I've got a UK PS3 and signed in to PSN with a US account.
