Starring Mike Sexton and Vince Van Patten as themselves, as well as Burt Reynolds, Bret Harrison, Shannon Elizabeth, and Charles Durning, and a "host of well-known poker pros, recently wrapped shooting in New Orleans and is currently in post-production."
"Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination."

I think Oscar Wilde was talking about poker.

This will doubtlessly be a curel subjection. Nonetheless, a subjection I won't miss.

From imdb:

Plot Outline: As an ex-gambler teaches a hot-shot college kid some things about playing cards, he finds himself pulled into the world series of poker, where his protégé is his toughest competition.




I am so happy Burt Reynolds is in this.

It's probably gonna suck, but it involves poker, so I'll probably watch it anyway.

The was sorta' what I was saying, but not really. That was why I said it how I did. FYP's are only effective if they reveal an omitted truth, or more accurately articulate the OP's idea. I think I pretty much said that was why I would watch it.

Burt Reynolds......Cannonball Run was a great movie. Only the first one though.

The Japaneese guy running off the road while watching Behind The Green Door was great.

Here is the movie:

Exgambler finds down on his luck youngun, or successfull luckbox donkey youngun.

He teaches him how to play the correct way.

youngun does very well.

They both get into the WSOP ME (cuz everyone knows that's the only tournament that matters)

Get's down to HU between them

Either the Old guy wins and proves he's still the best, the old guy lets the youngun win because he realizes how good the youngun actually is, or the youngun actually beats the old guy representing a "changing of the guard"



There, I just told you exactly what's going to happen. Now you don't have to spend 7 bucks to go see it, or 4 bucks to rent it when it comes out

Actually, you told us three things that might happen. It'll be worth $9.50 for me to find out which of the three actually does happen, I think.
