POKER INFO - PROILE - Mike McDermott

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?

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!!

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.

lol, i would walk up a slap mike.. he's a dummy

u guys do know HE IS FICTIONAL right? this is really Matt Damon.

JetsFan315 are you kidding me??

There are many Mike McDermott's out there..

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.

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 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.

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.

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

Observer..get a fuking life bro

Gin...always gin

HOWDYA LIKE THEM APPLES!! oops sorry wrong movie

Hey ROUDNERSUCKED, get a fucking spell checker.

he could see gretchen mol at the wsop in rounders 2 and then he could yell "WHOS RUNNING TREADSTONE" wait wrong movie

Rounders rocked. u guys just dont appreciate its greatness cause ur not a poker player.

JetsFan - if we play heads-up, i guarantee u will be filing for bankrupcy within the hour.

where did u get that diss, come up with a new one idiot. and besides i would woop ur ass heads up. and u said this y? all i said was that rounders ROCKED

JetsFan - i made that comment because how u assume none of us are poker players. I think a good percentage are otherwise why the fuck would they be on these boards? You think you are above us, you're not loser.

no i dont think i am above anyone,besides YOU. i only assume the ppl who r saying rounders sucks r not poker players, or r at least not good poker players.

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.

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

see ya all smart@sses at wsop 2006

this is stu ungar and i would have beat this guys ass heads up while i was higher then a kite on a hot july morning

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."

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

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

[HPG ADMIN]

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