allowing you access to more tournaments, better equipment, and a true sense of
the High Roller lifestyle. Cue up the most authentic pool experience on mobile

“Whether in Monaco, the playground of the rich and famous or in Las Vegas, the
heart of the High Roller lifestyle, gamers across the globe will be testing their
professional pool skills against the best of them,” said David Gosen, CEO of I-play.
“But be careful, your opponent might offer you a huge cash bonus for a near impossible
shot just to get you to miss! We’re thrilled to be launching another 3D Pool game
