Dont like poker, but this is a great movie
"Ever since it came out, it has to be the most quoted poker movie of all time... Very entertaining, and interesting story even if you aren't a huge poker fan. Still love it after watching it over a dozen times..."

This movie is truly and instant classic, by far my favorite movie of all time. It provides and in depth look into under ground card rooms and the life of a rounder. Besides the great entertainment it provides it also is educational when he goes over his hand in his head etc.

Razor-sharp dialogues, uniformly great performances by the cast, and understated direction from John Dahl that works perfectly for the film. It's one of those movies that you end up watching again and again just fo Read more...
