He gives us direction how to manage poker clubs and how to organize bigger tournaments, and provides us with the confirmation that poker is a mind game.

We have over 140 members. Since poker has not been legalized yet, it is difficult to promote or campaign for poker officially in Mongolia.

In order to make poker legal and persuade government officials and authorities, we have repeatedly submitted an official letter and confirmation stating that poker is a mind game and mind sport to the Mongolian government.

As result of our efforts, the law on poker games will be reconsidered this autumn.
