Some are dressed in bikini's, other's are dressed in lingerie, and others are completely nude. Just like the game, simply pick the cards with the ladies that match the same pose. But the real treat is when the guys get a matching pair, should they be a nude girl, they will be treated to the service that she's posed in. Some offer tekoki (hand job) services, other's fellatio. But other's will offer full sex services (however the are only allowed to stay in the position they are posed in). Best of all, the matching pair will do a double effort to make sure you walk away happy and with a smile! Fantastic! 130 mins. Buy 4 or more DVDs, get 15% off!
