	All for the Winner - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		All for the Winner (Chinese: 賭聖 Literal translation: Gambling Saint) is a 1990 Hong Kong comedy directed by Jeff Lau and Corey Yuen.
		Sing quickly becomes a rival to the King and must win his way through a world competition to prove his skill.
		While All For The Winner itself was initially a parody of God of Gamblers, it was such a well-received film that it spawned many sequels of its own.

	TAP: Vol 5, Iss. 17. Talent and the Winner-Take-All Society. Robert H. Frank. (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The benefit from having the additional contestant is to raise the expected value of the ultimate winner's performance, since there is always some chance that the entrant will prove superior to the existing contestants.
		In an ideal economic world, we would keep sending additional contestants to a winner-take-all market until the expected gain in the value of the winner's performance was just large enough to compensate for what the last contestant could have earned in another occupation.
		Because taxing the winners' earnings at a higher rate makes both entry and performance enhancement less attractive, the net effect is to steer marginal resources away from winner-take-all markets into other sectors.

	Winner-Take-All Markets
		If a pool of 10 candidates can be expected to yield a chief whose value in the job is $70,000, and a pool of 11 applicants can be expected to yield a winner who provides $72,000 worth of value, it is in the interests of the society to have at least 11 competing.
		Hence, if the value of being chief as perceived by the society is not much smaller than the value of being chief as seen by the winner, there will be a tendency for too many candidates to compete for chiefdom.
		If the value of the ceremonial chief to society were $10,000,000 but the winner only received a value of $100,000, it is likely that the competition would attract too few rather than too many entrants.

	Amitabh Iyer: Post 51 - Winner takes it all
		Life is unfair, if we fail to understand and imbibe the simple rule that life always rewards winners exponentially unjustly.....If we do, then we must play to its rules and then suddenly life is fair.
		As a child, I grew up listening to Abba, and I remember this lovely song of theirs called "The winner takes it all." No one remembers other groups from that era, we all remember ABBA for being a front runner.
		Of course, this song is not about sports but instead about lovey-dovey sentimental losses, but yeah, you could forgive that part of the song...anyways life, love, togetherness.....all have an element of chance, dice and gamesmanship to them.

		He's a stablemate of the favourite Tawqeet and that could be as close as he gets to being a cup winner unless the heavens open and it buckets down.
		Then, in the Caulfield Cup, while the winner stuck closer to the fence, Activation got off the rails, headed wide and made ground to finish fourth.
		He is in a good stable, is a good age, looks nice, and has the credentials of being a derby winner in his home country of Chile.

	All for the Winner (1990)
		Sadly, the print used was cut, excising one scene midway through and truncating the ending slightly.
		The scenes were restored in a subsequent remaster, released at the end of 2004.
		The only true sequel/spinoff to All for the Winner is the film The Top Bet, which cast Anita Mui as Sing's sister.

	The Illuminated Lantern - Asian Cinema Reviews: All for the Winner
		But some credit must be given to this film, which is able to parody the earlier film and at the same time create an engaging story around a new cast of characters that in many ways was stronger than God of Gamblers.
		All for the Winner was a box office smash, making a star out of its lead, Stephen Chow.
		This movie is still in the top highest grossing H.K. films of all time, and Stephen Chow's films continue to draw large audiences.

	DVD Talk Review: Stephen Chow's All For The Winner (Uncut Version)
		I've found that many Hong Kong comedies are painted with very broad strokes and there are certainly several head-scratchers in All For The Winner, but its focus on aping God Of Gamblers (Chow even watches the film at one point) keeps it firmly grounded.
		Chow plays the lowly bumpkin to a tee and his frequent co-star, Ng Man Tat, is hilarious as his scheming Uncle.
		While not as razor sharp as his most recent releases, All For The Winner is still a blast and a half.

	Small Businesses Pick the Best Products of the Year
		Even more surprising, this year's winner hails not from the usual small-business-storage suspects, but rather from NetApp, an enterprise storage vendor that, in 2006, launched a separate business unit to sell storage products to small and medium businesses.
		In this category we had five finalists, and the winner, EVault Small Business Edition, offers small businesses with 15GB or less server data a complete off-site backup and recovery service.
		Whether winner or runner-up, ACT is still a favorite with small businesses after all these years.

	Amazon.com: The Winner-Take-All Society: Why the Few at the Top Get So Much More Than the Rest of Us: Books: Robert H. ... (Site not responding. Last check: )
		One major culprit is inherent in mass culture: when millions have a small interest in the winner's performance, however minutely superior to the runner-up's, a large reward goes to that winner (as in a golf tournament).
		The reward ratchets upward as the market in question becomes overcrowded with aspiring winners (as in acting), but at the end of the game, the inevitable multitude of losers are left with little reward for their efforts.
		As the book goes on, however, it falls into the same pattern of thousands of books before it: the authors have made one important and interesting observation, and they proceed to claim that virtually everything in the world that they disapprove of can be accounted for by this one observation.

	Techdirt: Winner Take All Outsourcing: Netflix Will Pay $1 Million To Whoever Improves Their Recommendation Engine
		The concept of crowdsourcing has been popular lately, but not everything is easily sourced out to the crowd.
		Still, this is an interesting trend, and you have to wonder if other companies will start experimenting with this "winner takes all" form of outsourcing -- or if people realize that all of the losers end up with nothing.
		In both of those contests, the winners would simply ofset their expenses.

		All for the Winner was Stephen Chow's first true "nonsense" comedy, and it proved to be a huge hit in Hong Kong.
		Though it's not as accomplished as Chow's later work, All for the Winner is still a very funny movie that has some good action sequences to boot.
		But overall, All for the Winner is a solid HK comedy that should please both long-time fans and those new to the genre.

	FairVote - The Winner-Take-All Problem
		Winner-take-all election systems do nothing to provide representation to any group making up less than half of the population in a given voting district, and the high percentage of the vote needed to win election can be a severe barrier to minority candidates.
		Since many areas are dominated by a single political viewpoint, winner-take-all voting systems will often result in no-choice elections where one party has a permanent monopoly on power, and the winner is effectively predetermined.
		In the United States, two in five state legislative races go uncontested as a result, and nearly 99% of congressional incumbents win reelection by large margins.
