I would be played by Ben Affleck.
No, Matt Damon.
A coming-of-age drama about a teenage boy unsure as to why he gravitates towards girls with big pairs.
A janitorial comedy about my time as a young plumber, and specifically, when I decided to fit an unregulated U-bend to the local high school's bathroom system.
Hilarity ensues.
they fast very loose and very short stacks. my best game comes in games which have deep chipstacks and these are the worst thing for that, so all through the day i've been winning myself money on cash tables and this has allowed me to get the buy in fee without going below what my BR was at the start of the day.
best of all today i will be playing the main event fully relaxed when yesterday was a day i had been going into MTTs following a day of disappointment from all those sat losses.
I expected more maturity from you, mate
Cenachav - you're up
815143540 super roller main
being 3bet prelop im fearful it's AA or KK he could have AK too and do the call for the chance.
J1010 i see AK checking and if i did donk he would fold.
alot of the time i will not see the A or K to help give me to easy fold but as it's still early AK is probably not going to cbet if it missed.
should i do the donk lead on the flop just to see clearly where i stand?
If there was to be a poker movie about me I would obviously be the main character, but I would be a psychologist (I aren't really but it ties into the story) with it being my profession to understand the way people think. The story would feature 8 characters playing a poker game, but would flash to each of their back stories (similar to the tv series LOST) that give the viewer a hint as to why they play a certain way at the table. Stars would include a young successful romantic; a heartbroken father who allowed the loss of his son to ruin his marriage and an ex-inmate trying to earn a honest living. As a psychologist I will notice the smallest tells that I will tell the viewer through my thoughts and because of my reading ability I will generally be a winning player
Playing me would be Daniel Ratcliffe and I would call the movie "Behind The Poker Face"
Think it would be called "Ice of the Tiger."
The story is of a young cub who goes out on his own to play the Siberian Poker Tour. The early days were tough but he survived until he earned he earned his stripes (geddit!!!). It was a solitary existence out in the tundra but he eventually found a group of like minded individuals. Because of the propensity to house insects in their fur & their tendency to play tight poker, they decided to call themselves The Nit Squad.
Working together, they became a successful tribe, regularly going out there & "taking it down." Eventually, the young Ice became middle aged Ice and had cubs of his own before venturing out to win an EPT (Extremely Potent Tiger), a WPT (Wonderful Poker Tiger) and finally on the plains of Nevada by becoming the oldest tiger to win the WSOP (Wonderful Siberian Old Pussycat).
I would be played in my youth by Andy Murray, in middle age by Al Murray & in old age by Bill Murray. In fact any old Murray.
A group of cuddly small beings (who mentioned Matt Bates?) go on a quest through the cash games and the MTTs of Middle Earth in order to reach their final goal, a gold ring (which thanks to inflation has now morphed in to a gold bracelet) originally stolen from them by Isildur, at the Wizarding Series of Poker
Here is my entry to the poker film of my life.
Love Stakes
The intrepid hero played by myself is a low stakes poker player who qualifies for the WSOP via a 60 pence satellite. When he gets to Vegas and the word gets out, all the other poker players treat him with disdain and try to bully him off all his pots. However I fight back and suddenly I am the chip leader and the news channels start following my story. Meanwhile at their respective homes both Penelope Cruz and Angelina Joleyn see this story developing and make their way to Vegas to see this average Joe play. Both fall in love with me and a love triangle develops.
Critics of the film say that though the story is good, they say that the love scenes are too long and the poker scenes too short.
if i were to make a movie it would be called cash satman .
the story is of a person who's poker skill is very good, every month he manages to win a profit of roughly £1000 on cash tables, the issue he has is that he wants to have entry into the big poker events, first he'll do entry into lots and lots of sats, most days he will loose out and has still not got himself in, the thing is he now is annoyed to not have entry having spent so much in sat, so he does a direct buy in which reduces his money even more and then he starts getting worried about going out so plays overly cautious.
having put some thought into his poker game as a whole, he stops entering so many sats, he now does a new route where he gets the full buy in made from a day's worth of cash play, when, if he makes that amount and now he no longer is as cautious with his play in the big MTT as he has not went over the top.
when the person is playing the sats his actor would be TK since he too hates all them limpers
when he is playing in cash games he would be acted by mattbates
when playing in the MTTs he would be played as phil ivy
He's like Shrek's ugly brother
