cuddlemonkey 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I think he means the odds of a Father and his Son making it all the way to heads up, not any two random people.He wasn't talking about random people, though. He specifically said Raymer/Williams, Hachem/Dannenman, and Moneymaker/Farha. Those aren't random people. Link to post Share on other sites
loxo 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Coupla things.Springsteen Rocks.Anyone who says they wouldn't hit Drew Barrymore IMHO is delusional.The movie looks terrible but no doubt I'll see it on DVD and kinda enjoy it, (think Nick Cage-ConAir/Face Off kinda enjoyment).

Shizzmoney 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 LOL @ the KJo being showned on the movie poster. I wonder fi that means Bill Fillmath will make an appearance? Link to post Share on other sites
JadeTiger 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Im disappointed in the trailer. It just looks like 'Tilt' on steroids. BOO! I bet when Bana loses a pot in the movie his eyes get really intense and he starts to turn green. "Dont get me angry! You wont like it when I'm ANGRY!"I think famke janssen is a much better cast than drew barrymore! boo on the cast. boo on the trailer...hopefully the cameos will make up for what looks like a lame poker movie. Bana looks like all the wanks in a casino who have their arm candy and wad of benjamins and lose it in about 30 min at a 1/2 NL table. I love those guys! The "Let me show you how its done sweetie" guys. Oh man! good times. Link to post Share on other sites
SopotBoy 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 One of my dealers is actually in this movie. I guess she is one of the dealers at the final table. It was pretty cool like a year ago or so one of the producers was in our room and just asked her if she wanted to be in the movie. Two weeks later she's in Hollywood getting paid like 3 bills a day to shoot one sceen. Link to post Share on other sites
*Lone*Trout* 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Yeah, it does. Nothing is more homosexual than Bruce Sprinsteen?? Daddy,Who's Bruce Sprinsteen?*L*T* Link to post Share on other sites
bascomeb 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 same odds of:Raymer/Williams making the final 2Hachem/Dannenmann making the final 2Moneymaker/Farha making the final 2you see where I'm going with this?um no i dont see where you are going with this because you didnt pick raymer and williams to be final 2 before the event started did you? To pick father and son before event starts to be final 2 would be improbable.Well one time I had 2 jack off and some bit.ch slowplayed my nuts till i busted all over the table I'm a little surprised no one found this funny!

CobaltBlue 662 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm guessing that there's subtext to the KJo. Ya know...father and son that are at odds. Link to post Share on other sites
shamhawks 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I didn't think too much of the trailer...It looks like a story that could be great, but won't live up to it with the main actors they got..It would only be worse if they had keanu reeves with robert duval so they could have 2 monatone actors that don't give anything special to the movie.Hopefully I'm wrong, but can't expect much...Will just add to my netflix and watch it whenever Link to post Share on other sites
fckthis 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Looks like shiet.Reasons why this will suck1) Eric Bana2) Drew Barrymore3) Trailer Reveals final showdown4) Too many real pro cameos5) Plot is garbage Link to post Share on other sites
Billy 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Author Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm guessing that there's subtext to the KJo. Ya know...father and son that are at odds.Very good observation. Also, Jennifer Harman plays a role in this movie. She's not just a cameo. Link to post Share on other sites

jowest 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 i found out the song in the trailer is by bruce springsteen and i'm listening to it right now and like it, does that make me gay? =(with a shovel Link to post Share on other sites
FatBurger 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I especially liked how everyone folded because he was on a flush draw.I saw David Grey in the trailer too. Also in the movie, according to IMDB:Sam FarhaChau GiangJohn Hennigan (not just a cameo, apparently)John JuandaMike MatusowDaniel NegreanuI may have missed some. Link to post Share on other sites

Of course everything looks like Tilt because it has poker and a hotshot poker player in it. It'll be good, and whoever thinks Robert Duvall isn't a good actor is a complete moron. The Springsteen song does sound good. Link to post Share on other sites

mhoward29 0 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Robery Duvall is a GOD among men. He is the most under-rated actor of his time. Link to post Share on other sites
BudBundy 0 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 It looks cool.Robert Duvall is the man.Right next to James Caan. Link to post Share on other sites
Sullyarmy 0 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 ya them making it to the final table is as likely as well...those 2 guys at the taj circuit making it to the final table together/heads up and they play in same home game... that's pretty unlikely Link to post Share on other sites
Vatche 0 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 i had a chance to watch this a few months ago at a speacial screening, but it was on a thursday and i didnt want to miss survivor...i turn on cbs at 8pm to watch survivor and there was no episode that week because of college basketball...

anselm 0 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 That trailer made me it was so bad. This looks like it's going to suck so much *** that even David Williams would be jealous. I feel like adding it to Netflix would contaminate my queue. How do you go from the very badass L.A. Confidential to ****ing Drew Barrymore and Lucky You? What a disgrace to poker and films. Here's to hoping the trailer is a million times worse than the movie itself... Link to post Share on other sites

DanielSon 0 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 yea i dont think it will be that great. it's really kinda of lame how at the end of trailer they have him and his father heads up for world series of poker.like you dont just wake up one day and decide you are going to win a poker tournament. The odds of him and his father outlasting 800 people , or even 8000 people is improbable.Lame I would normally tell you that you're right...But then the 2005 USPC comes to mind when those two friends from the same home game made it heads up together....so it's possible.
