15 minutes into Owning Mahowny when he's in some double date game night situation but needs unc to cover -1.5 so even though they're up a point very late and about to win the game, he's crawling on the floor in this super focused panic, staring at the tv and ignoring his guests and interrupting the festivities for what looks to some of them like no reason and to the rest of them like a small reason. But in reality he'd bet 30k he really couldn't afford on it and was internally begging the gambling gods for a free throw to go in.

not sure i've seen the whole movie but i've seen the 2nd half. did he bet sports too?.... anyway, simply amazing movie for those who haven't seen it. and i have a strong personal connection to the story (on the CIBC banking side)

Wasn't that movie historically accurate?

Have to give a shout out to this one here as 22 game through for me on my first roulette spin at Encore Boston today as part of back to back hits. As always, gotta know when to walk away. Casino is decent, won't be back too often till they can open up a sports book.

That Hyena laugh at 1:10 is great.

Is Rounders any good? I've heard good things about it but I suspect it's a corny load of rubbish.

Best poker and gambling movie of all time IMO.

Depends on what you're looking for:

*If you want to be entertained...it's great. Sit back and enjoy it. Tons of memorable quotes that you'll hear in the poker rooms.
*For authenticity...maybe not the best. A daily poker pro can poke holes in the plot. Things like no-cuts, etc.

If u gamble, and especially if u play poker, it's must-watch. The acting is actually QUITE good:
*Imho, Damon, Turturro, and Norton hit the mark perfectly. They get it just right.
