looks like they are here to stay, attacking Chinese/Asian markets

Mansion88.com

I wouldn't be surprised to see them exit US market entirely, they aren't like most CR books that need US players to survive.

Does 88 mean something to Asians ?

I think 9 is somehow bad in their cultures.

Yes, 88 has some significance.. Mike at trojan once told me they planned to open topcat88 or topcat888 for the Chinese market or something like that...

they should add another 8....

888 - prosperity x3.

Telephone number 8888-8888 was sold for USD$270,723 in Chengdu, China.
The Summer Olympics in Beijing are scheduled to open on 8/8/08 at 8:08:08 p.m.[2]

1 - 一

2 - 二 easy

3 - 三 live

4 - 四 - considered unlucky since 4 in Chinese (sì) sounds like the Chinese word for death (死).

5 - 五 - the self, me, myself, nothing

6 - 六 - easy and smooth

7 - 七 - together

8 - 八 - sudden fortune, prosperity

9 - 九 - long in time

Yeah mansion has been advertising heavily in asian countries. I'm living in Singapore and most local punters own an account with Mansion.

FYI: number 8 in chinese = Fa.. means Propesrous. As for 9 it means union forever which is a good number for couples wishing them happiness together forever. Another good number is 3. Which means Survival.

Chinese hate number 4 and 7.. 4 means DIE. 7 symbols unlucky.

8 is the most luckiest number in China. It is so lucky that any number whose individual digits add up to eight is lucky. I. e.
17... 1 + 7 = 8.
The exact opposite applies to the unlucky number 10.

Thought I chime in here. 88 is considered to be good fortune and good luck and 44 is considered to be the death nail in your gambling coffin.

They also have a thing about golden lions with wide open mouths. They made the MGM change there front entrance. They said it was bad luck and stop staying there.

Nothing wrong with golden lions...but don't walk into a lion's mouth.

BTW the original MGM lion was green and replaced by a "golden" one.

Don't know about Asians, but for neo-nazis 88 means Heil Hitler (as H is the 8th letter of the alphabet):puppy:
