    The Cincinnati Kid

    Just saw this classic 1965 movie last night. I've never played five card stud before, but it looks like fun to me.

    what are peoples thoughts on the poker in Casino Royale...Zunga

    Marginal at best...But that movie overall is pretty good.. I thought "the Grand" was just ok, but I overall hyped it, thinking it would be very funny like "Best in Show and the Mighty Wind."

    The poker in CR was HORRIBLE at best. It nauseates me. And I still haven't seen The Grand for fear of it letting me down. How can a production company get so many big stars together for a (from what I heard) complete dud??? It's like Envy all over again.

    We should convince Lappin and family to procure funding for our own poker movie hehe.

    Any ideas on plot?
    "You have it in your power to turn a bad-beat around simply by realizing this simple truth: The more bad beats you encounter, the luckier you are. It's a sign that you are playing against opponents who continually take the worst of it, and if you can't beat someone who always takes the worst of it, you can't beat anyone"

    Get me at the tables...

    Just caught this movie again the other night, and I think it's very good. If you haven't seen it yet, I recommend checking it out.
