To correct myself after seeing the movie again this weekend. LOL Johnny Chan had J9 Siedel had Q7. I guess Chan could flop the nut str8

not to mention you cant flopa straight with q-7.

Never seen anyone catch a run of cards like Mikey here. Flushes, full boats, pocket kings, 9's full of aces and flopping nut straights. Jesus with hands like that I could go "rolls like that" 15,000 in 3 days. Anyone else notice when Petra comes to see Mike and he's watching the 89 Main Event she says "He flopped the nut straight". Yet his cards are Q7? Now I'm no pro but with Q7 you can NEVER have the nut straight

Wow you turned into a cutey pie...wish I was still in the States to check up on you.

Did you know? July 25, 2006
Five minuts after the movie stops, the taxi driver takes all of Mikes money, and with only 1 dollar, Mike states "60.000 and three days to the WSOP start... I gone on rolls like that before."

TILT was not better then rounders but was still good. it was made by THE SAME WRITERS. but TILT was a bit too fictional.

TILT was better than rounders. The last sequence of heads up poker. only in the movies. gimmie a break. Malcovich was more concerned with "splashing the pot" for the camera than playing cards.

Marinachhi - just what the fuck does that line mean then since u are so much smarter than me?

Marinacchi

Best line of the movie was when Mike was walking into KGB's club at the end. As he enters, he says: "This place still makes me queezy. The brick walls, the fu#king mopes sitting at the tables, the musty smell. I feel like Buckner walking back into Shea." It's subtle lines in movies that not everyone might get that turn them into cult classics. Probably 80 percent of the general population didn't get what the heck he was talking about with that line. But those of us who do like the movie even more because we know the analogy being made.

Reed Hamm that sounds like a good idea for a sequel. It will obviously take place at the WSOP and Mike will definately make it to the final table at least. Infact, he could come across his idol Johnny Chan in he process and Johnny goes "Hey, arent u the f-head who cashed out after re-raises in one hand at casino game?" and Mike would look him in the eye and say "Sorry Johnny, i don't remember". I think Ed Norton could come back in, but not because he also entered the wsop. He's there scamming through side-games OR he hears that Mike is doing well and drops in for a visit - hopefully to patch things up since Mike might become a millionaire. But there would have to be 1-2 new characters that Mike meets along the way, such as other aspiring poker players hoping to hit the big-time. And also another poker "bad boy" similar to KGB that Mike must defeat heads-up at the final table. Too much time has elapsed since the first unfortunately, but its still a good idea.

IF THIS GUY IS SO GREAT WHY WASNT HE IN VEGAS TO START! if i was "that good" id be saying f--- law school, come on this movie is awesome but that part defintly bugs me.

Reed Hamm
July 11, 2005
I have several ideas on a rounders 2. It would start with damon getting droped off at one of the major casinos and i won't say anything else. but the idea is great. how could you not make one now with popularity of poker. ed norton is in it, also grammer ticked off that he didn't get his way and the teddy kgb will have a small part. matt will be at his world series of poker table and he will hear a familiar voice at another table, ed nortons. they make eye contact. ed loses quick and trys to cling to matt again but make has no part of it. kinish realizes that matts idea of the tournement wasn't that bad and he also enters the tournement. there would be all the poker stars today at some of the tables . i'm thinking ed norton will die in this movie. but damen will win the world series of poker.. oh his exgirl friend shows up to watch the final table. you have to make it. call me ill right the whole script.

Can you imagine this guy at the WSOP? On the first day, he'll be like "i'm all-in, cause i dont think u have a spade" and gus hansen will say "i don't haaaaave a spade, i haaaave 10-3 off suite giving me an unlikely full house!" and takes away all of Mike's chips. He'll just sit there godsmacked and broke yet again.

Johnny Chan

Hey, is this the moron who ran away after winning one hand from me? i asked him what he had and he say "sorry i dont remember" and walked off i was so mad! how dare he outbluff my 8-3 off suit i kill him!!

Observer

How exactly did Mike misplay his hand at the start? He flopped top 2 pair, then made the boat on turn.. the only 2 cards to beat him were the f'ing aces, like what are the odds? was he suppose to pick up teddy's tell? i mean how else could he have played it with that hand?

boonsfarm
May 14, 2005
I agree... If I saw someone do that at a table I'd ask why his clown ass even sat down..

man
May 7, 2005
He thinks he's so great cos he bluffed out Chan.. He folds for 3/4 of an hour then randomly decides to re-raise the guy pre-flop. Not like Chan is going to call someone playing that tight unless he has AA or KK. Anyone could do that, he probably lost more money in blinds than he got from that hand.Then he acts like a cock saying "SORRY JOHN I DONT REMEMBER" and gets up and cashes out.

the buy in back when the movie came out was less then that because poker wasnt as popular and mabe only a 3rd of the players that play today where actually into poker

yup

I was wonderinging that myself...It seems 30,000 was a good enough stake for a player of his talent...

idontgetit
March 27, 2005
why is it at the begining of the movie he was making a run for the WSOP when he already had 30 large? As far as I know the buy in is 10. Did he think they were gonna charge him extra?

The way he played his nut straight at the end of the movie was dumb. It's not that hard to tell that when people say, "sure, I'll gamble" when they put their chips in that they have a hand. Easiest tell in the book.
