Apparently Hollywood will never properly capture a real poker game. Same forced, contrived dialogue mixed with over acting, and retarded card combinations.
@rogerrodd Yeah I know - it's embarrassing for a poker player to watch. Kinda like watching two top FIDE rated GM's talking real time during a chess game:
Well gee Gary, if I take your pawn, I'll be a pawn up, but then you'll trap my Q, so, I'm just gonna mosey by that pawn trap....lmao.
Go watch Cincinatti Kid - better movie, but THE WORST final hand ever recorded by Hollywood. Not just the two hands, but the betting patter as well - horrible.
I would never fold kings in that spot its fuckign ridiculous that kid can hav so much that u beat.. yes the dummy can hav a fullhouse but its still a ez shove on turn
Umm.... the guy puts in $10k when dominated and gets super lucky by hitting his deuce... even if he intended to run the 'trick' the entire time, he's got 5 outs (another 7 or the 3 deuces).... 'cool' - but terrible play...
@jpsartrean The point of the scene has nothing to do with cards and playing by the book. It's about the feel of poker. If you look at just the cards themselves, there is never a right or wrong play. It's all circumstantial, and you play it as it unfolds.
@AikiNickAMV the deuce DID give him the upper hand, in that he could now run the 'trick' - i.e., offer to turn either card over and make the 'donkey' think he had a full house... he was dominated on the flop... again, even if he INTENDS to 'bluff' the whole time, he's got 5 outs to do it...
lol Chris!? lol. My opinion is: if you are willing to play KK in position, you have to go all the way. Means, put him all in from post flop. Cause if you are going to call a raise post flop, next card if it was an A will be obvious for KK to fold= 77, 22, 33, AA, A7, A3, all those hands are winning against KK til te river. Therefore, my view the best play will be, NOT pay any card to view, NOT free card. Lets go to the end buddy! ALL IN !
Lets see, and granted I'm not the worlds greatest NLHE player. However I would go for 3-4x with the KK. Now when he checks and then gets led on for $5k, I would not min-raise back. I would go from $20-$30k. The checkraise is supposed to be the hammer. The other alternative would be to flat call and take a card off. If a diamond doesnt come I might check again or weak lead with the intention the bearded guy will fire back. When he does I put the hammer down. Instead this guy played fkn weak
What a terribly acted movie! Obviously written for non poker players. I don't care how big a donk is, who says these things outloud: "The reason that you have agreed to show me any card is that they are both the same card. Therefore I conclude that you have a full house (2s full of 3s)." And the other donk: "Hey I suppose you could have shown him either card and had a convincing story." LOL This scene could have had ZERO dialogue and I would have gotten the same info out of it.
@ggnub100 was a pleasent surprise to see that you didn't cursed me :) I just wanted to said that there are situations when you should considere twice before commiting yourself with a big hand even on a small board:)(i have a lot to learn too)
can somebuddy send me a link to this movie?? i m searching 4 this movie for weeks and i cant find it online plzz help!
