This looks pretty horrid, but the movie about Stu Unger with Michael Imperioli- which I believe went straight to cable - is in my top 5 of worst movies of all time.

Seinfeld made everyday life worth watching. I wonder if this new poker movie delivers on the realism of poker rooms. You know, the guy sitting at the table picking his nose before grabbing his chips and calling your bet on your aces full. The guy who takes a bite of greasy food, licks his fingers, then tosses his chips in with king high flush against your nut flush. The 85% of players who have to gamble so bad they don't wash their hands, rush out of the bathroom, then very next hand throw their chips in against your quads.

There's supposed to be a movie coming out next year about Amarillo Slim with nicolas Cage starring as Slim. It's written by the guys who did "Ali" and "Nixon."

Slim's book "Amarillo Slim in a World Full of Fat People: The Memoirs of the Greatest Gambler Who Ever Lived" was one of my favorite reads in quite a while. Who knows how many of the stories are totally true though...

anyway, here's a link about the movie

The Grand is the only upcoming poker movie that has any real chance of being good.

It makes me sad that someone implied that rounders was bad. I still like that movie today (compared to all the rubbish coming out about poker).
