Take a look inside this underground poker room that emerged in Essex as a result of the pandemic. With legal card rooms and casinos not reopening since lockdown, a group of poker players decided to start their own game. As the stakes get higher, tensions rise and the organisers must navigate the risks of running an illegal gambling operation. The film explores the thrill of the game, the community of players, and the legal and ethical questions raised by the underground poker scene.
