Instead of doing a proper sequel, Stephen Chow took his "Gambling Saint" character into Wong Jing's God of Gamblers franchise for two subsequent features. The first true sequel/spin-off to All for the Winner is the film The Top Bet, which cast Anita Mui as Sing's sister. Stephen Chow had a minor cameo in that film. This was followed another sequel/spin-off, Dou sing 2: Gai tau dou sing (1995). Characters from these films are also featured in San cheng mou moon 1991 (1991) which is seemingly set in the same universe.
First Movie to ever cross the HK$ 40 million(HK$41,326,156.00) mark in Hong Kong box office.
This film was given the English title of All for the Winner, even though the Chinese title literally translates to Saint of Gamblers, which makes things confusing for subsequent films in the franchise. Dou sing 2: Gai tau dou sing (1995) is a direct sequel and the Chinese title of that film literally translates to Saint of Gamblers 2.
