Tony G., the Lithuanian-Australian professional poker player, began an online poker room dedicated to Open Face Chinese Poker in December 2013. Five months later, he said that his online poker room is such a great success that he is ready to do something new, such as launching an Open Face Chinese Poker Opener, the first of its kind in online poker history.

He told CardPlayer, “I am very much looking forward to this. At TonyBet Poker, we are always on the edge, introducing new games and tournaments. Open Face Chinese Poker itself is a very exciting game both to play and to work with.”
