More Celebrities becoming Poker aficionados

The 38-year-old star Daniel Craig, who is the new James Bond actor, has added gambling to his range of 007-inspired skills. Daniel revealed that he not only had to learn how to drive a high-powered car and handle a gun convincingly for his Bond debut, but he had to become a card-sharp.

During the filming of the forthcoming 007 movie, Craig was taught to play a plausible hand of poker. He said I had not only had to learn the game but also had to look convincing playing it.

British card player John Duthie, who has made £1.5million from poker and was asked to advice on the gambling scenes, said that Craig enjoyed learning how to play poker so much that he has taken to the game in his spare time as well.

Definitely, the poker world has seen its fair share of celebrities like Tobey Maguire, Ben Affleck, Leonardo DiCaprio and Norm Mac Donald take their shot at the tables. And it is interesting to see how other forces like the online poker industry draw more of the stars crowd into the Poker World.
