Dirtydutch 8 Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 This will doubtlessly be a curel subjection. Nonetheless, a subjection I won't miss. Link to post Share on other sites
tyfgine 0 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 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. Link to post Share on other sites
Dirtydutch 8 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Cliche, but it could be compelling. Maybe. Link to post Share on other sites
nell789 0 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 It's probably gonna suck, but it involves poker, so I'll probably watch it anyway. Link to post Share on other sites

Dirtydutch 8 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 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. Link to post Share on other sites

gkunit20 1 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 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 themEither 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 Link to post Share on other sites

Now you don't have to spend 7 bucks to go see it, or 4 bucks to rent it when it comes outActually, 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. Link to post Share on other sites
CobaltBlue 662 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 They both get into the WSOP ME (cuz everyone knows that's the only tournament that matters)Seeing as Sexton and Van Patten are involved, pretty sure it'll actually revolve around the WPT. Also, there have been articles about the WPT set being packed up and shipped to NO for the shooting."Lucky You" is the poker movie that will revolve around the WSOP and have a lot of pros.I know y'all like Reynolds, but look at this cast list from LY:Eric BanaDrew BarrymoreRobert DuvallDoyle BrunsonRobert Downey Jr.Sam FarhaChau GiangJennifer HarmanJohn HenniganJohn JuandaJason LesterMike MatusowDaniel NegreanuMatt SavageThe crazy part is that Harman, Hennigan, and Savage aren't even starring as themselves.
