Post New poker movie??

This should be rather...interesting...if it comes to be...

It's untitled right now, but to compare it to Rounders..well....

From what I've read, it's being written by the same writers, but will star Leonardo DiCaprio, and will be produced by Paramount, and will focus on online poker...

This should be an interesting movie.

I wonder how many of the actor's and actresses have played online?

I also wonder if Annie Duke will be in this one, we all know she plays a little online poker.

This will definitely be a rated R movie.
There will be cursing involved during their online game play.

Modern tournament play became popular in American casinos after the World Series of Poker began, in 1970. Notable champions from these early WSOP tournaments include Johnny Moss, Amarillo Slim, Bobby Baldwin, and Doyle Brunson. It was also during that decade that the first serious strategy books appeared, notably Super/System by Doyle Brunson and The Book of Tells by Mike Caro followed later by The Theory of Poker by David Sklansky

Poker’s popularity experienced an unprecedented spike at the beginning of the 21st century, largely because of the introduction of online poker and the invention of the hole-card camera, which turned the game into a spectator sport. and now with the world matches on cable and sat. it just keeps growing

Are you proud of being a "Spammer"? Is that how you make your living, feeding off of other peoples hard work?

Be ashamed, get real and promote professionally and stop being an annoying fly to other respectable webmasters!!!!!!!!!

I did see some educational writing from niranja, which is a good thing.

The more information we read, the wiser we may be.
