What happens

All for the Winner (Chinese: 賭聖; lit. 'Saint of Gambling') is a 1990 Hong Kong comedy film, directed by Jeffrey Lau and Corey Yuen, and starring Stephen Chow. It was the first movie ever in Hong Kong to cross the HK$40 million (HK$41,326,156.00) mark in the Hong Kong box office. It was a parody of God of Gamblers (1989), and due to its success it spawned a sequel, God of Gamblers II (1990), which featured characters from the original God of Gamblers.
